Hazy golden-orange colour with a frothy-bubbly, warm-white head, decent stay and some lacing spots. So many hops in this one, hard to see which one really does what. Big orange juice nose with some vinous Nelson Sauvin, lemon zest, grassiness and some tropical fruits. Some good citrus flavours, with good juiciness and the dryness being not too hard. Hints of lychee and tropical fruits. An interesting juicy IPA with lots going with all of these hops, giving lots of fruitiness and grassiness.

Quite a dark brew, almost black with hardly any copper highlights. A nice mocha-coloured head, decent stay and some foamy lacing spots. Fresh roasted malt aromas with coffee notes, a tad chocolate but not sweet. The hops really show up in the taste with a good grassy finish. Not overpowering though, and the roasted barley shines with hints of cherries, but again - not sweet. A smooth dryness follows. Quite a beautiful Imperial Stout with the American hop touch,. going down very well.

Olfactif aux houblons citriques et épicés alliant pamplemousse et poivre blanc avec des parfums floraux et un caractère calcaire rappelant le vin blanc. Liquide jaune paille avec reflets verdâtres. Limpidité exemplaire. Mousse abondante, rocailleuse et tenace. En bouche, les fruits à chair blanche dominent, en s’alliant aux agrumes, aux notes de fleurs ainsi qu’au poivre blanc. La palette de houblons est extrêmement originale avec ses notes de poire, de pamplemousse, de vin blanc calcaire rappelant le Chablis. On y retrouve également le côté ‘’crisp’’ des Pils rehaussé par une carbonatation assez intense et des notes de poivre blanc. Les accents maltés y sont cependant très peu exploités. L’amertume est aussi très douce. Malgré l’absence de caractère malté de cette Pils, on peut se rabattre sur l’extrême originalité de son houblonnage. Appréciée !

Une bonne base maltée soutient des arômes citriques d’orange et de pamplemousse ainsi qu’un soupçon tropical de mangue. Liquide jaune tirant sur l’orangé et très flou. Mousse de taille moyenne, rocailleuse et assez persistante. Explosion tropicale et citrique à l’entrée de bouche, alliant des notes de mandarine, de mangue, de pêche, d’ananas ainsi qu’un fond d’alcool assez discret. Une triple NEIPA tout à fait dans les normes, bien goûteuse et à l’alcool à peu près pas ressentie malgré ses 9.9%. Bien appréciée ! O:6.55 V:5.0 G:8.35 C:4.65 G:16.15 T:40.7

The non alcohol thing is wild, but sure.

Can: Poured a hazy/cloudy yellow color ale with a medium white foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of citrusy hoppy notes with some juicy floral hops undertones and light tropical peach notes. Taste is also a good mix of citrusy hoppy notes with some juicy floral hops undertones notes, some tropical and peach notes and a semi-dry finish. Body is full and creamy for style with good carbonation. Interesting tropical NEIPA with nice citrusy features without being overly sweet.
