A hazed blonde pils with a thick frothy lacing white head. In aroma, nice biscuit malt with grassy floral German hops, light mineral notes, pleasant. In mouth, crisp biscuit malt with German Saaz hops, herbal and smooth. Bottle from brewery, 8 months ago.

(473ml can from L'Axe du Malt, Quebec City) Pours opaque pale orange juice with a thick white head and spotty lace. Aroma of clementine, dried mango, lychee, floral tropical fruit with a creamy overripe funk of sorts, slight dank hop cones. Flavour is fairly sweet up front, lychee and mango, mandarin, bitter orange and grapefruit peel, papaya smooth creaminess in the middle, finishing semi-dry with a little peppery zesty bitterness and nice floral lychee depth. Medium-plus body, soft carbonation. Delicious stuff, a really nicely crafted DIPA from a 'macro'.

(473ml fresh can from L'Axe du Malt, Quebec City) Pours nearly opaque orange-gold with a decent white head of fine foam leaving lace. Aroma of dank piney mango, pineapple, peach, floral tropical fruit, a bit of green onion and peppery hop spice, clean sweetish pale malt. Flavour is semi-juicy up front with guava, mango, lychee, slight weed, touches of pine and resin but fairly light, core of light biscuit malt with a creamy hint and some estery yeast action, finishing dry and lightly to moderately bitter with citrus zest and a hint of oniony hop burn that would probably fade with less freshness. Medium plus body for the abv with average plus tingling carbonation. For such a widely available IPA from a 'local macro', this is definitely serious juice. Can be a touch hot when young.

(473ml can from L'Axe du Malt, Quebec City) Pours nearly opaque orange gold with a small white head and no lace. Notes of juicy pineapple, some mango, peach, tangerine peels, wet pine needles, a touch less sweet and juicy than the original recipe though; malt is pretty clean with a touch of biscuit to it. Finishes dry with more pine, weed and other hop resin notes than the original and a moderate bitterness. Medium body, oily, fairly soft carbonation. A nice twist on the original version but definitely tends more towards the forest-y resins expected from the hops used and ends up more bitter for it.
