1/3 pint @ Saint Monday brewpub.
Léger orangé, col crémeux blanc-cassé.
Arôme centré sur le houblonné - floral et agrumes avec une petite pointe de poivre blanc, mais je note aussi ce côté un peu yaourt 'off flavour' avec une touche de beurre. C'est léger mais assez pour m'indiquer une petite erreur en brassage.
Palais est assez classique d'IPA côté ouest - un peu 'savonneux', effet léger yaourt sans pour cela être infectée avec un léger retrait malté qui perdure en fin de bouche.

1/3 pint @ Saint Monday brewpub.
Dorée sur un léger pâle, col blanc.
Arôme sur un bouquet malté plus pils, léger citronné, houblonné noble entre floral et tereux et une certaine rondeur de l'apport du maïs qui se dégage en rétro-nasal.
Palais passe presque pour une revisite de la rustic mais avec du maïs sans le côté plus épais de cette dernière. Amertume plus élevée, floral avec ce côté épicé fermenté de maïs.
Plus sec et sur le sgrains, fini rustique et citrique léger avec un léger effet sec de feuilles séchées.
gave a cheers!

1/3 pint @ Saint Monday brewpub.
Dorée, col blanc.
Arôme au bouquet plaisant floral et herbacé, effet de fleur de jasmin - grains concassés avec une petite douceur résiduelle en rétro-nasal - et pourtant pas de maïs dans cette version.
Palais présente une belle rondeur de grains - douceur presque mielleuse, avec un appui délicat d'amertume noble, léger floral ici aussi jasmin et camomille avec ce côté lager en fin de bouche.

Keg at the Black Heart, Camden, 21/06/24. Pitch black topped with a tan head. Nose is molasses, dark malts, fruit rinds, spice, charr. Taste comprises liquorice, spice, molasses, burnt toffee, roasted bite, earthy dark fruit rinds. Full bodied, oily feel, semi drying close doused with a boozy flicker. Okay old skool sipper ... lacks a little depth in this era for me though.
