0.33 l can, thanks to my family for this one. Pours hazy, deep golden with thick, off-white head. Nose is faint fruity and big, sticky resinous hoppy with some caramel and biscuity malts to it. The taste follows the aroma, but this time there are no fruits whatsoever only the piney side of hops. Light bodied (actually feels a bit too thin, despite the "normal" ABV), with average carbonation. Closes with medium, lingering bitter finish. Decent west coast IPA, nothing outstanding, but quite alright.

Can 330ml (Sainbury local, Edinburgh). Golden colour and small white head. Tropical fruity, pine and resin in the nose. Light-bodied to medium-bodied. Piney, a bit sweet fruity flavour. Basic West Coast Ipa. Ok.

Bien que relativement linéaire aromatiquement, cette Crossing The Rubicon est appréciable avec une amertume sur les devants. A noter l'utilisation du houblon Bravo que je ne connaissais pas spécifiquement. Le visuel est sur un blond voilé avec une mousse s'estompant rapidement. Le nez est sur une dominante orange amère avec un léger miel et du pamplemousse. Simple mais efficace. Dès l'attaque, on apprécie l'amertume saillante avec un cocktail orange amère, pamplemousse, pêche et une touche de poivre. La deuxième bouche est dans la lignée, avec une jolie amertume bien relevée. L'arrière bouche n'apporte rien mais reste agréable. L'alcool, à 6,9% est très bien. Le final est à l'identique, mais sur une bonne longueur. On aurait apprécié un peu plus de variations, mais c'est plaisant et efficace.

[33cl can from Morrisons, Bracknell.] A hazy amber pour with a tight cream coloured head; aroma of malt and citrus; quite oily in the mouth with a bitter grapefruit taste and some caramel; then more pithy citrus to finish.
