Je dois avouer que même si cette Pale Ale de Popihn est honorable, j'ai été quelque peu déçu car je sais que la brasserie peut bien mieux faire. Au programme donc, Citra, Mosaic et Summit avec de l'orge, 4,8 % et 35 d'IBU. Le visuel est sur un blond paille limpide avec une fine effervescence soutenue et une mousse blanche crémeuse et généreuse. Le nez est appréciable sur une alliance litchee, mangue, orange, ananas, pamplemousse et herbes. Sur l'attaque, la vivacité provient d'une légère acidité. Mais heureusement qu'elle est là car sinon cette pale manque réellement d'impact. L'amertume est loin d'être saillante et l'alcool, à 4,8 % pas très efficace. Les arômes s'expriment tout de même davantage en deuxième bouche et ceux-ci rendent tout de même la bière appréciable. On retrouve notre légère acidité en arrière-bouche comme sur l'attaque mais le final est tout comme la corpulence, court. Bof.
