Surprised to see an American Red Indian on the label of this Belgian IPA: I guess it’s because of the American hops used in the brew. Anyway I had a glass of this at the 2014 Brugge Beer Festival and I really enjoyed it. Deep blond to golden in body with a white-ish head. The nose had a citrus lead with some sweeter fruit esters too. Taste wise it was again on the citrus side but not as pronounced as in the aroma. The lemon flavour being subdued by a mild maltiness and yeast hint. Good bitter finish to each sip: a good and balanced IPA, American or not.

Draft @ BAB’14. Dorée, col blanc moyen. Arôme est houblonné vert pas mal d’agrumes et un rappel de Simcoe, Cascade, Motueka? le bouquet reste en général assez discret et cela malgré les continents cités. Palais est sec, fruité agrumes, note de pamplemousse, citron vert. Pointe sèche venant de l’amérisant. Fin de bouche reste dans uns tyle purement belge. Malt de caractère pâle, cara.

Bottle @ BAB’14. Dorée sur un col blanc très léger. Arôme offre de suite des note de Laphroaig au bouquet typiquement tourbe. Cela résume mon impression pour un bouquet unidimensionnelle. Palais est surprenant et au final je note très peu de l’influence de la méthode champenoise, sauf si on parle ici de la levure. Le profil reste grandement dominé par ce single malt qui offre un caractère tourbe assez singulier. En retrait, je note le profil plus typique d’une triple notamment au niveau des malts. Pas mal, mais recommandée pour les amateurs de ce genre de traitement et surtout pour les amateurs de tourbe.

375 ml. bottle sampled @ Brugs Bier Festival 2014. Clear golden with no head. Nose is salty, peated & watery, grains, lightly sour, very weak, light watered down fare. Taste is quite watery, salty, lots of peat, yeast, grains, faintly sour, touch white sugar. Watery with fine carbonation. This is like whiskey diluted with a lot of water at best. Didn’t care for it.
