ABV: 7.9% IBU: - Ticks: 4
Consider the Ortolan is brewed with a combination of pilsner, two row, flaked barley, and malted oats. Hopped in the kettle with Citiva, Idaho 7, Simcoe and Sabro, and dry hopped heavily with the same. After fermentation, the results are a dangerously drinkable Double IPA with notes of juicy tropical fruit and Pina Colada in both the aroma and flavor.

Can from Elizabeth Station, Bellingham, WA, via Sergey
Cloudy blond colour. Wonderful juicy hops, dominated by, possibly, the Citra; sweet and full bodied, but with bitter balance, and creamy oats feeling, not really chalky. Excellent.

16oz on Alex's porch. Appearance: cloudy golden with a white head. Aroma: sweet tropical fruits, a bit earthy. Taste: along the same lines, quite juicy, pretty bitter, very flowery. Overall: not bad.

16 oz can poured. A bright, glowing orange with a cloudy haze. Plenty of loose foam head that lasts to the end. Rich, peach punch nose, with some mellow grains. Smoothbtaste, easy drinking imperial with slick, tropical juicy notes, and a moderate to aggressive hop bitterness late. The barely sweet side and the late bitter side mesh well, and make this a really fun,super tasty imperial. Very enjoyable brew.

Opaque, thin head, orangey blond colour. Overripe peachy hop profile. On the palate, some alcohol up front, malts are thick. Moderate bitterness.
