Ça manque de rondeur et d’équilibre mais j’ai particulièrement apprécié le fait que les épices soient persistantes sans être envahissantes. Le clou de girofle et le caramel se disputaient la vedette... Bonne mais peu complexe en fait ;-(

(Bottle, Stockholm Beer Festival, 4 Oct 2014) Dark brown colour with frothy, beige head. Malty, spicy nose with notes of caramel, ginger, cinnamon, cardamom and dark bread. Malty, spicy taste with dried fruit, caramel, raisins, prunes, ginger, cinnamon and a gentle spicy bitterness. Full body, with a certain sweetness. Quite spicy, and with a certain alcohol bite. Still very well balanced and fairly warming. Very nice.

Pours a clean amber colour with a beige creamy-bubbly head and some very nice lacing. Aromas of mild grass with some citrus (grapefruits, oranges) and some cereal grain base with hints of caramel. Pretty much that for the taste with some decent bitterness in the finish, caramel and grain lingering. I do like this hop here, as it gives some sharp bitterness with a nice balanced of citrus and grass, all in an Impy IPA. This is well-brewed and goes down nicely.

Bottle: Poured a clear deep copper color ale with a large foamy head with OK retention and minimal lacing. Aroma of light earthy hops with some citrus notes and some caramel malt notes are also perceptible. Taste is also dominated by some sweet caramel malt with some earthy and citrusy hops notes. Hops notes are pretty tame and malt backbone actually dominated this mix which ends up tasting more like a barleywine than an IIPA. Body is light for style with good carbonation. Off for the style but still an enjoyable beer.
