Moersleutel collaborating with one of the more familiar French craft beer names in this NEIPA, thanks Meeki for sharing! Snow white, membrane-lacing, thinnish but stable head, hazy pale yellow blonde robe. Aroma of granadilla, guava, honey pomelo, dough, yellow kiwi, pink peppercorns, lemongrass, dank sweatiness. Sweet, juicy onset, honeydew, guava and yellow kiwi, touch papaya perhaps, medium carb with slick yet creamy mouthfeel; doughy, almost meringue-ish malt core drenched in tropical, hugely aromatic hoppiness, bringing back all that honey pomelo, honeydew, guava and granadilla but also a minor bittering note - not overpowering the sultry tropical sweetness, but enough to bring a bit of balance and hugely important in this kind of beers at least to me. Perfectly finetuned: I still associate Moersleutel primarily with what they did first, namely big stouts and porters, but apparently they have become very skilled at IPAs as well (whilst not underestimating La Débauche's contribution to this particular one).

Hazy yellow colour, medium-sized white head. Pineapple and straw in the nose. Medium-bodied. Juicy, pineapple, citrus, peach and straw in the flavour. Good modern standard NEIPA. With 6% even a bit on light side.

A murky and light yellow beer, a head is white and big. Aroma has strong citrus grapefruit, lime, orange. Taste has pineapple and grapefruit, mild bitterness. Medium bodied. Juiceful and good beer.
