Hazy, golden colour with a big frothy-bubbly white head, good retention and leaving soapy-foamy lacing clouds. Some good citrus notes in the aromas, with lemon zest, orange juices and a touch of tropical fruits. A juicy mouthfeel with a little tart, a decent dryness picking up slowly in the finish. Again, all of the fruitiness found in the nose is present in the flavours. A tad more zestiness, but the juiciness really balances things. Quite a nice Pale Ale, and better than their other beer I had, which was a NEIPA, but with the 100% Southern Cross. This one has more punch.

Hazy bright golden colour with a huge, frothy-fluffy warm-whitish head, very long retention and full sticky-foamy lacing patches. Citrus zest aromas with some oats and mild grassy hops. The hoppiness is quite smooth from the Southern Cross, with lemon zesty notes and piney hints. A wet mouthfeel with some light dryness. Not a bad, smoother NEIPA, but not my favourite hop, as lacking punchiness.

Un olfactif aux notes de pamplemousse, d’ananas, un environnement citronné avec des épices aux allures de poivre en sourdine.
Quand même pas mal zesté comme ensemble aromatique.
Mousse rocailleuse et moyennement épaisse.
Liquide jaune et flou comme une NEIPA.
Agrumes à profusion sous forme de pamplemousse, d’orange et de léger citron avec en prime des accents de banane.
Les esters combinés aux houblons forment l’entièreté de l’ensemble gustatif avec très peu de phénols.
L’amertume est assez faible.
Je classerais cette bière plutôt dans la catégorie White NEIPA.
Moyennement appréciée !

(473ml can from L'Axe du Malt, Quebec City) Pours opaque milky dull gold with a tight stable eggshell head and lace. Aroma is not insanely strong for the hop saturation, a lot of ripe dank mango, resin, cannabis, navel orange, grapefruit, citrus peels, peppery green garlic. Flavour is off-dry and absolute hop shake in character, the malt is doughy and supports intense red mango with heavy resin/turpentine edges, orange zest, some pineapple, nice heavy cannabis quality, a lot of pine intensity and more than a little peppery green onion/garlic, finish is quite dry and still firey with resin and oniony hop burn with lingering mango and orange, alcohol flavours quite hidden. Medium-full creamy body, softly carbonated. Aggressive stuff, wish for a touch more aromatics but it's as heavily hopped a beer as I've had off a QC shelf and very reminiscent of Wood Brothers beers circa 2020.
