Review based on the BJCP2021 guidelines (style 21A - adapted low alcohol: 0.3%). Bottle 33 cl - Batch undeclared (BB: 13/09/24). AROMA: medium to medium-high hop aroma (pine, slight peach), low malt background with a toffee note and beer-must. APPEARANCE: light amber color and clear. medium off-white head with average retention. TASTE: initial medium hop flavor (pine, slight fruitiness), followed by medium-low to low malt background, slightly sweet and somewhat musty. medium-high bitterness with an almost dry and bitter finish that persists. MOUTHFEEL: medium-low to low body with medium carbonation. OVERALL: a not bad low alcohol IPA!

Clear orange blond beer, big creamy irregular off-white head, little stable, adhesive, leaving a nice lacing in the glass. Aroma: a bit malty, fruity touch, herbal notes. MF: ok carbon, medium body. Taste: pretty bitter start, a bit malty, some citrus, tropical fruits, ok but not great. Aftertaste: pretty bitter, a little malty, grains, grassy, a bit sourish.
