12 ounce can. Hazy yellow gold pour. Pillowy white head. Spotty lacing. Perfumy citrus fruit aroma. Flavor upfront is sweet, juicy citrus. Notes of orange, grapefruit and pineapple. Some peppery, piney notes on backend. Northeast meets West Coast. They become good friends.

Almost perfect for me, I love this uncommon style of black ipa, rich, subtle dosis of roasty malt, coffee, cocoa, vanilla and the hop, subtle bitterness, full of aromas, a real pleasure in the mouth after a sunny day at the swimming pool, 29.05.23, at Epalinges.

I think that this IPA is really good, with personality, malt, side of peach, excellent bitterness, the perfect mix that you could expect, 15.02.2017.

Trying this bottle, late at night with my wife after a beautiful afternoon with my son at Sauvabelin. Solid ipa, juicy, fruity, resinous note, bitter, citrus, floral and aromatic, well balanced, rather a classical ipa, 29.09.23, at Epalinges.

From Amstein, St-Légier. Tasting and opening this bottle yesterday, at home, after the meal, as the bottle says: the glory of the hop and it was a full dedicated ipa for this flower. Rather a old school ipa, dry malt, mineral, resinous, note of pineapple, 16.11.24, at Epalinges.

Just beautiful, a manet painting, orange/mandarine body, so hoppy, so citrus, so powerful in the tongue, a piece of art this can, 18.09.18 at the ex comptoir Lausanne, it was the last year of this event, unfortunately. It was a really nice moment in family and after this beer, a big stress because my son ate too many bread and we had to push this bread out of the throat.

12 can. Poured a hazy amber-orange color with a small off-white head. Flavor was bold and resinous with a lingering bitterness. A punchy beer that tastes just like you'd expect a West-Coast Stone to taste like, with just a little bit more lemon balm to it than in some of it's more classic offerings.
