Agrumes et conifères au nez.
Doré et très partiellement voilé, le liquide se couvre d’une mousse assez abondante, crémeuse et persistante.
Beaucoup de conifères en bouche avec également une assez bonne dose de résine.
Accents de sapin de pin et également de cèdre avec des notes ‘’grassy’’ en finale, juste assez pour donner une bonne amertume sans être excessive.
De légères notes de pamplemousse et de poivre complètent le tableau gustatif.
Une West Coast verte et amère.
Dans la tradition des IPA résineuses sans tomber dans l’excès.
Appréciée !

Arômes feuillus et légèrement épicés en équilibre avec des notes de pain grillé et de noisettes.
Ambré et parfaitement limpide, le liquide développe une mousse assez épaisse, mi-crémeuse et assez persistante.
Feuillue en entrée de bouche avec une rétro-olfaction maltée proposant des notes de pain grillé, de subtils esters fruités et une amertume tenace.
Les houblons sont un mélange de feuillu, herbacé, terreux et épicé.
Malts et houblons sont bien équilibrés.
La carbonatation est cependant trop vive.
Une bitter originale.
Appréciée !

473ml can. Pours a hazy gold yellow with a small, foamy, short lived, white head that fully dissipates. Aroma of bready wheat malt, banana, yeast, clove, faint vanilla and floral hops. Sweet flavour of bready wheat malt, banana, lactose, yeast, clove, a hint of maraschino cherry and floral hops in a dry, mild bitter finish. Medium body with a syrupy texture and soft carbonation. I was hoping for more. This is just an overly sweet Hefe. S'ok, I guess.

Sweet flavour of grainy wheat malt, lemon, strawberry, black tea, basil and floral hops in a dry, sour finish. Light body with a watery texture and average carbonation.

Poured from 473mL can (no date stamp). Clear-ish dull gold with dissipating white head. Mild guava, just a feint hint of pineapple and mango, there's some salt and a slightly wheaty tartness with an underlying creaminess that actually presents a little bit as banana paste. Not terrible, but could use some work.

Pineapple marmalade mostly here. Pours murky orange with pretty good pillow of head. Light bitter end. A bit off off tang in the finish. Sour lemon peel or something. Can.

Poured from 473mL can. Clear-ish yellow gold with small white head. Soft pine hops with mild biscuit malt, simple, but okay.
