Medium-hazed, golden-amber colour with orange highlights, a white frothy head, good stay and lots of sticky lacing streaks. Big zesty aromas with oranges, grapefruits with a touch of pineapple and some good grassiness. Some good bitterness in the taste as well, with hoppy-grassy notes, orange-grapefruit zests and a tad witbier in the background. Quite a bitter, hoppy, drying IPA with the Witbier kind of lost - but a nice brew anyways.

Hazy, golden colour with an orange hue, a warm-white head, good stay and thick foamy lacing. Orange juice nose with lemon zest, some tropical fruitiness and a herbal hint. Lots of citrus zestiness in the flavours, with decent juiciness and slow, building dryness. A pretty decent Double NEIPA that has juiciness, but also zesty notes to balanced its dry finish and lingering fruitiness.

Fairly clean, deep amber colour with some golden highlights, a warm, light-beige head, decent stay and some lacing spots. Aromas of darker malts, giving some dark fruit notes, mild molasses, hints of coffee and nuttiness. Some good fruity maltiness in the taste, with roasted barley base, some decent hoppiness and a touch of caramel. A pretty good, easy-drinking Altibier with enough to keep it interesting.

Lightly hazy, bright yellow colour with a frothy white cap, good stay and some foamy lacing patches. Nectarine aromas over the herbal hops and a mild fresh malt base. The taste shows a little more of the grassiness, hoppiness over the light maltiness. Hints of apples and pears in there. A crisp mouthfeel with a touch of dryness in the end. An interesting Lager with a NZ IPA touch to it and lots of fruitiness.

Olfactif bien tropical avec des notes de résine bien affirmées.
Accents de mangue, d’orange et de pamplemousse.
Liquide doré et presque limpide.
Mousse abondante, rocailleuse et tenace.
Entrée de bouche tropicalement fruitée avec de la mangue, de la papaye, de la goyave et de l’orange.
La fin de bouche, quant à elle, se complait dans la puissante amertume résineuse.
Une West Coast bien amère et bien tropicale.
Dans les standards du style.
Bien appréciée !

Hazy, golden colour with an orange hue, a big frothy-creamyish, warm white head, good retention and thick foamy lacing. At first, the aromas are mild. Then, some herbal notes found in some West Coast IPA comes, but after a while - the big tropical punch appears ! The taste shows stone fruits, tropical ones and touch of the citruses. Some pineapple, papaya, white grapes and watermelon. An interesting NEIPA that offers a slight different take on the style.

Pour a clean amber colour with wee golden highlights, a light-beige head, average stay and some foamy lacing spots. Hardly any carbonation seen, nor felt - just like on cask. Some nice spicy malts in the aromas, like rye, Pils, over the caramel ones. The mouthfeel is nicely balance to not be too thick, nor syrupy, with a drying hop, but not to be overpowering. Some good cereal malt flavours with that touch of spiciness. Quite a good English Ale with a nice blend of maltiness from the cereal grains, low carbonation and just enough hops to be very drinkable.

Ronds accents de pain frais et environnement herbacé représentent un olfactif assez standard.
Liquide doré et limpide.
Mousse abondante, rocailleuse et persistante.
Pain miellé et malts complexes en entrée de bouche.
Malts miellés, sucrés, presque caramélisés, avec un environnement d’alcool présent mais pas dominant et une amertume herbacée tranchante et rehaussée par l’alcool.
Chaleureuse et généreuse en saveurs surtout à cause du sucré des malts.
Goûteuse et chaleureuse.
Très appréciée !

Lightly unfiltered with very tiny particles floating around. A golden colour with a frothy white head, good retention and thick, foamy lacing. At first, the nose represents the West Coast IPA style with some piney notes, grassiness. Then, some hints of lime do come out and the Krush lets out a little tropical-stone fruitiness. The flavours have some grassy hoppiness over a mild caramel base, but some citrusy zest does come out in the finish, creating some good dryness. Decent grass lingers with this, keeping it a nice West Coast, but with a touch of East Coast fruitiness.

Un léger fumé marie un profil malté plutôt céréalier en première impression olfactive.
Pain et verdure complètent le tableau avec ce qui me semble être un léger soupçon de DMS.
Liquide doré et assez limpide.
Mousse importante, rocailleuse et assez persistante.
Saveurs équilibrées de malts et de fumé en bouche.
Subtilement miellée avec de subtiles saveurs boulangères et des malts doucement sucrés, combiné à un fumé délicat et sans agressivité.
Les houblons sont floraux et délicatement herbacés, maintenant une amertume modérément basse.
Le DMS est beaucoup moins présent qu’en olfactif mais demeure perceptible.
Une lager équilibrée entre le fumé et le malté avec une amertume contenue.
Appréciée !
