50cl can dégustée en chambre à l’hôtel à Tbilisi. Achat chez Optimist Craft Bar, Tbilisi.
Canned 22/12/2023.
Ambre/pâle, col épais crémeux blanc-cassé.
Arôme finement malté, pâle et caramel léger, pointe de pils, sensation d'effluves houblonnées rappelant les C-Hops - surtout sur les agrumes avec un rétro-nasal léger résineux. Le malt revient aussi discrètement en rétro.
Palais est sur une base classique IPA américaine, j'aime ce retour old school - léger sur les malts, pils/pâle. Amertume des houblons avec une belle note d'agrumes, herbacée - note de pamplemousse et un fini qui revient sur le malté.

Draught (as All Blacks@Koht, Tallinn. Deep amber colour with a small beige head. Aroma is fruity, floral, some toffee and mild toasted notes. Flavour is toffee, floral, fruity, some nectar and mild wooden tones too. As it warms up it gets some berries, which actually become quite disturbing.

Not really a NEIPA. Or just massively oxidized. Pretty like the version with HBC 630, it's out of style. Still not a fail as an ordinary IPA.
