Aromes maltés céréaliers assortis de tons herbacés doux. Liquide doré presque limpide avec un col d’épaisseur moyenne qui s’affaisse plutôt rapidement. En bouche, les malts ressortent assez peu, si ce n’est que de subtiles notes céréalières. Dominance de houblons herbeux, verdâtres et un peu gras. Fin de bouche un peu résineuse aux allures de sapin, persistant pendant quelques instants pour donner un arrière-gout âcre. L’apport des notes de malt est déficient et le houblonnage hasardeux dans cette Tipopils bien ordinaire. O:6.125 V:4.4 G:6.9 C:3.25 G:10.5 T:31.175

Tasting at Ryan's, can
Pale yellow colour, hazy to murky. Nice tropical fruit aroma. Smooth mouthfeel, soft, a bit creamy, nice creamy oats flavour, and nice fruity hops, citrus zest, correct bitterness.
Good.

Can pour from trade with Johnnnniee--thanks, John! It's an opaque dark yellow with nice sparkle, 2-finger width white foamy head with excellent retention and nice lacing. Aroma is strong tropical fruit, pineapple, citrus, grapefruit. Taste is strong grapefruit and citrus over milder tropical fruit and biscuit. Mouthfeel is medium side of light-to-medium bodied with thick texture, soft carbonation and crisp finish with mild lingering bitterness. Overall, strong all around though taste doesn't quite rise to the level of the aroma.

Pale with some haze. On the nose, bright hops, especially in the citrusy domain. Light body, fairly lean, decent pale malt signature. There's a fresh weedy citrusy hop note as well. Good stuff.

Poured from the tap. Very hazy yellow with small white head. Mango, very feint pineapple and passionfruit, lacto, an unremarkable kettle sour. Disappointing, stick to the IPAs…
