Poured from the tap @ Vices & Versa. Hazy yellow with small white head. Dank, soft tropical hops, light resins. Decent.

Hazy, bright golden colour with a frothy white head, good stay and some foamy lacing left. A Belgian Tripel-spicy base with fresh grassy-citrusy hops and hints of apples, honey. The mouthfeel is on the thinner side, wet with just enough building, mild dryness. Some bitterness appears late and lingers a little. Only getting a bit of the Nelson Sauvin, Sauvignon Blanc grape notes. Getting a little more of the Motueka hops giving the apple-pear, tropical-stone fruit combo. Quite an easy-drinking, very strong Tripel with good hoppiness, fruitiness and the alcohol well-hidden.

Hazy golden colour with a big warm off-white head, great retention and patches of soapy lacing left. The fruitiness of tangerines from the Sabro comes out softly in the nose. Citrus peel comes out eventually. The mouthfeel is on the thinner side with the alcohol well-hidden, and mostly juicy with a touch dryness in the end. Lots of citrus in the flavours, juicy, but more on the zesty side, with a light warming-bitterness. A pretty good lightly-bodied, drying, juicy and zesty IPA.

Appearance - 8 | Aroma - 8 | Flavor - 9 | Texture - 8 | Overall - 9
Olfactif assez sauvage avec notes fermières ainsi que des griottes, un apport malté décelable, une touche fruitée / sucrée et un fond de boisé. Liquide rougeâtre tirant sur le brun et assez voilé. Petit filet de mousse effervescente qui disparaît rapidement. Entrée de bouche fruitée, sucrée et sauvage avec un apport malté bien senti. Les malts nous donnent de beaux accents miellés, subtilement caramélisés, qui viennent contrebalancer l’acidité des levures sauvages. Les cerises griottes assurent le côté sucré, le boisé est bien représenté et on y décèle même des notes de noisettes et de biscuit en rétro-olfaction. L’alcool est très bien intégré et presque pas ressenti. Une certaine amertume terreuse assure une finale bien sèche avec un apport malté céréalier et des notes boisées de barrique. Complexité remarquable dans cette hybride où l’on retrouve un équilibre certain entre une Kriek et une Triple. Le genre de bière qui me réconcilie avec les ‘’sour’’.

Dark brown colour with tiny particles floating around and some ruby-copper highlights. Beige frothy head, decent retention and full lacing. Coffee aromas over the roasted malts and some mild molasses, dark fruit notes. The taste shows some light bitter coffee over the roasted barley. The mouthfeel is a little thicker, slick, silky, but smooth. A pretty nice coffee darker beer that is quite smooth.

Clean brown colour, darker amber with ruby highlights. A nice frothy-bubbly light mocha-coloured head, good retention and some creamy-streaky lacing. Roasted malt aromas on the mild side with some dark fruit notes, hops and hints of coffee-molasses. A smooth, silky mouthfeel with a decent building, drying finish. Again, mild roasted barley flavours with a tad coffee, dark fruits and molasses. An easy-drinking Baltic Porter and good collaboration.

Hazy golden colour, on the bright side and some light amber hue. The head is frothy, bubbly, a little creamy with good stay and some sticky, foamy lacing. Citrus aromas with mostly lemon, zest and a tad juices, over the orange notes, spices. The taste shows a touch of citrus bitterness, but all pretty juicy with just a brush of dryness. Tangerine fruitiness with lemon zest. A nice juicy IPA with a tad smelling Witbier.

Appearance - 6 | Aroma - 9 | Flavor - 7 | Texture - 8 | Overall - 7.5
Hazy golden colour with an orange hue, a big fluffy-bubbly white cap, good stay and some soapy lacing left. Nice orange and mango aromas at first pour. Then, lemon zest shows up to cut the sweetness in the nose. The mouthfeel is fairly wet with a slowly, building dryness. Lots of citrus zest-bitterness. Some particles fall at last pour. Smells like a nice NEIPA, but not as juicy in the flavours - more zesty-dry, but still citrusy.

Dark brown colour with ruby highlights, a big frothy-creamy warm-beige head, good retention and creamyish lacing. Roasted malt aromas with nuttiness, hoppiness and a touch of molasses, dark fruits. The taste is malty, a little on the sweet side, but the hops come to cut the richness. Roasted barley lingers, and not too syrupy. A pretty easy-drinking Imperial Nut Brown ale with enough hops, that is just well-balanced, but still warming.
