Imported from my RateBeer account as Elav Indie Ale (by Birrificio Indipendente Elav):
Aroma: 8/10, Appearance: 4/5, Taste: 6/10, Palate: 2/5, Overall: 14/20, MyTotalScore: 3.4/5
26/XII/12 - 33cl bottle from Geers (Oostakker) @ home - BB: XII/13 (2012-1400)
Cloudy amber to rusty red brown beer, big creamy yellowish head, stable, bit adhesive. Aroma: very fruity, pineapple, passion fruit, lychee, some citrus, piny, little chemical. MF: soft to no carbon, medium to light body. Taste: fruity start, citrus, grapefruit, some peaches or peach candy, then very bitter. Aftertaste: very bitter and dry ending, medicinal. Smells better than it tastes, but not too bad for a 5.5% IPA (if you call it Indie Ale, I call it IPA).
