23rd October 2025
CBJ tasting, thanks to me for the bottle. Near clear dark amber brown beer, small pale tan head that lasts no time at all. Soft dark malts, a little dark chocolate and cream. Camphoric rich boozy dark malts on the back end. Reasonably drinkable but also quite artificial. Had much better beers at this abv point and, many times.

J'avoue ne pas être le plus grand amateur des sessions IPA qui sont souvent limitées dans leur intensité, je dois avouer que cette Alma est plutôt bien réalisée. Et pourtant, les IPA ne sont pas le point fort de la Débauche (même s'ils se sont améliorés). Le visuel est sur un blond limpide avec une effervescence soutenue avec des bulles de moyen diamètre et une mousse blanche de 5 mm. Le nez est sur une dominante de pamplemousse avec en complément de l'ananas, des herbes et de mangue. A la dégustation l'amertume est saillante et très plaisante comme les arômes. Les arômes herbacés sont un peu plus présents. L'houblonnage à cru est bien maîtrisé. Les arômes passent toutefois vites avec un manque de corps réel. Pas mal tout de même.

Can at home. Pours pitch black with a huge, tan head, it's clearly overcarbed. Aroma is dark roast, earthy notes, light coffee, some rye in there maybe, also some sulphur for sure and a hoppy touch as well. Taste is firmly bitter, coming from hops and roast, earthy notes, some sewery sulphur, but the overall experience is kinda ruined by the unreasonable levels of carbonation. Oh well
