Beer5000 (10641) - Kristiansand, NORWAY - SEP 24, 2019UPDATED: SEP 24, 2019 Bottle backlog May 2017. Muddy, hazy orange body with a small, short lived off-white head. Aroma has sweet caramel malt and dry fruit. Flavor is sweet, malty, quite hoppy, sweet dry fruit and resinous. Full bodied and long lasting aftertaste. Quite nice even if it’s really sweet.
caribou43 (3068) - SWITZERLAND - MAY 23, 2019UPDATED: MAY 23, 2019 A beer that I have found, the last year, at amstein and we have opened this bottle, the last week-end with Fred, at Epalinges. It waa our last beer, before to sleep and it was a good imperial IPA, to find our dreams. The color is copper and slightly orange, clear, normal carbonation, white foam. The taste has a warm alcool side, well integrated, solid bitterness, side of sugar, orange peel and pleasant quality of hop, taking more aromas at the end.
corkyrory66 (6649) - BELGIUM - JAN 29, 2019UPDATED: MAY 4, 2022 Triple ipa de 10,5 % abv pour 22° plato.
Signalons au passage le manque flagrant de données sur l'étiquette.
On ne peut pas faire plus élémentaire .. (eau, malt, houblon, levure ..).
Mon exemplaire était à 15 mois après sa date, parce qu'ils ne mettent
qu'un an après l'embouteillage, ce qui est anormal pour ce niveau abv.
Couleur roux ambré moyen, avec des particules en suspension.
Bulles moyennes, peu nombreuses.
Mousse beige, en fins flocons à la paroi.
Arômes très mêlés de résine, fruits confits, mauve, miel de lavande.
1ère bouche complexe, mais moins bien assemblée que le nez.
Arrière-bouche avec vin moelleux, résine, pointe de piment.
2ème qui garde la même approche, peu convaincante.
Arrière-bouche avec un peu plus de complexité.
3ème qui s'effondre en mêlant résine et chimie.
La longueur ne va jamais trouver de vraie harmonisation.
On trouvera même des nuances de térébenthine.
Jambes fines, assez courtes.
Levure correcte.
Alcool bien, mais qui ne réussira jamais son travail d'harmonisation.
Finale décevante.
CONCLUSION : une triple ipa certes par le niveau abv, mais très loin
d'exprimer la vraie complexité dont le style est capable.
Malgré les 3 seringues en bas de l'étiquette, je ne vais sûrement pas
m'injecter ce genre de produit en thérapie …
