Clean light golden-yellow colour with a frothy white cap, decent stay and some mild soapy lacing. Sour lemon aromas with lemongrass notes. Getting slightly hazed as it pours. Decent sour taste with the lemon juice, other citruses and lightly grassy. This last one gives a decent dryness. A decent fruity, mildly sour hopped brew.

Cloudy-hazy, golden-orange colour with a nitro off-white head, good retention and leaving some creamy lacing. Pineapple taste with the citrusy hops and hints of tropical fruits, bananas. Not as thick as expected, and the finish is very dry. Bitterness lingers. Grassy, fruity nose. Not bad, but was expecting a real smooooth, smoothie, fruity beer with the nitro. The IPA bitter, grassy aspect is quite high in here.

Dark brown colour with light ruby highlights. A big creamy, nitro head going nowhere, lightly beige and leaving some nice thin creamy lacing. Typical Guinness smell with lots of molasses, hints of dark fruits with the roasted barley as base. Smooth, silky, oily mouthfeel. The taste shows the burnt malt, showing some tart on the tongue. Hints of dark fruits, but very little. This is quite a nice localish, light Guinness alternative.

Can under Archibald Sélection Fin Brasseur IPA Légère. That beautiful hop aroma that reminds me of cilantro - herbal and slightly sour. Clean, getting slightly hazed as we pour, light bright-yellow colour with a white cap, average stay and sticky lace is left. The mouthfeel is thin, but still crisp and refreshing. The herbal, grassy cilantro is in the taste, but much milder. Still, quite a nice light Session IPA.

Clean amber colour with golden highlights. A big frothy, kind of creamy, light light beige coloured head with very nice retention and some foamy lacing patches. The nose is special with a touch from the farm, given from the mix of caramel malt base and the hops used in this one. Nothing bad, just not expecting this. The mouthfeel is nicely dry in the finish. The malt base is very, very mild in the taste, with the grassy hops that take over. This grassiness does better in the flavours, than the aromas. Overall, not a bad hoppy amber beer.
