Bottle thanks to Stuu666. Appearance - cloudy orange with a thin head. Nose - big orange note. Taste - tonnes of marmalade. Palate - medium bodied with a creamy yet tangy texture and a long dry tangy finish. Overall - this is more like a barley wine than an ipa.

Bouteille 33cl, BB 08/2015. Grazie a te Matteo! De couleur orangée, col moyen blanc. Arôme au bouquet renforcé de Calvados, les effluves de barrique et de pomme sont bien en évidence. De cela on en tire très peu des houblons, juste une touche malt résiduelle de caramel persiste. Palais offre de suite le caractère du Calva. Un profil agréable de pomme se fait présent sans être surfait. Les 11% restent présent mais n’enlèvent en rien la facilité de dégustation. Note une petite rondeur avec un résiduel doux sucré. Parait tout sauf une DIPA tant le Calvados est présent. Note un profil plus belge, plus particulièrement sur la fin où un côté levure belge se manifeste. Un bel usage du Calvados.
