7/II/14 - 33cl bottle from De Hopduvel (Gent) @ home - BB: I/2016 (2014-180)
Clear dark reddish brown beer, huge creamy dense beige head, pretty stable, adhesive, some chunks from the last part of the bottle. Aroma: very resinous, piny, little fruity, some citrus, exotic fruits. MF: lots of carbon, medium to full body. Taste: fruity start, citrus, some caramel, pineapple, pretty bitter, little sour, some red currants, sweet malts as well, nice piny bitterness. Aftertaste: very bitter, lots of citrus, grapefruit, caramel, pineapple, some passion fruits, yummy! Soft mocha touch, nice bitter ending. Great impression of the beer style!

Hazy gold beer with a little white head. Palate is minerally crisp and dry. Light creamy malt, semi dry. Orangey hops, a little tangy and a little sharp with a good dose of lemon. Finishes smooth with a mellow bitter linger. Pretty decent - like the hop profile and hope to try Smaragd hops again.

(Draught at Nüetnigenough, Brussels, 23 Oct 2013) Hazy golden colour with frothy, white head. Fruity, hoppy nose with notes of citrus, grapefruit, resin, grassy hops and apricots. Fruity, hoppy taste with citrus, apricots, grapefruit and a fresh grassy, citric bitterness in a fairly dry finish. Medium body, with just a touch of sweetness. Tasty IPA with a fresh hop character. Nice one.

31/X/13 - 33cl bottle from De Hopduvel (Gent) @ home - BB: 28/X/14 (2013-1020)
Little cloudy bright orange beer, big creamy white head, very stable, adhesive, leaving a nice lacing in the glass. Aroma: very fruity, mango, pineapple, passion fruits, sweet touch, honey, bit spicy. MF: ok carbon, medium body. Taste: pretty sour, bit lemony, overripe fruits, grapefruit peel, bitter, grassy. Aftertaste: very very bitter, bit chemical, fruity, pineapple, sour touch, a bit of a thin ending. Not bad, but... I preffered the Alpha.

Clear deep orange to amber beer, aery off-white head, pretty stable, bit adhesive. Aroma: honey, ripe to overripe fruits, funky (is it bretta?), orange peel. MF: lots of carbon, medium body. Taste: if I ever tasted an Orval clone! Eat this, Mikkeller! Bit funky, somewhat fruity, orange peel, pretty bitter hops. Aftertaste: bretta, though probably artificially bread, bitter adn dry hops, lots of citrus, some grapefruit. Lovely beer! For me, this is the winner of the series.

#900, @Gent, de hopduvel, mooie helder oranje met schuimige witte kraag Aroma: floraal, heerlijke fijne ipa aroma's zoals je mag verwachten (citrus en grapefruit) Smaken: matig zoet, redelijk hoppige bitterheid, matige sterkte, matig fruitig, zwak moutig en zwak kruidig. Zwakke body, dun van textuur, lage co2, vond het een lekkere zachte ipa!
