Bièropholie IPA

Formerly brewed at Bièropholie
Style: India Pale Ale (IPA)
, Canada

Nice mahogany with a light head and spotty lacing. Hop aroma. Bitter, floral and citrus included. Nice malts, some pepepr. Flavors of bitter hops balanced with sweet malts. Lemons, some caramel. Full body and a spicy palate. Nicely balanced.

Amber gold color with a nice creamy/stucky head & moderate lacing. The aroma is toasty with lots of hops, musky herbal. The flavor is lemony citrus with sweet malts & a bit of caramelized malt sweetness. Finishes balanced with the toasty hops very bright & equal.

Dark orangey amber body with a nice white head that is fairly quick to depart. Hops and malt in the aroma, not ton of citrusy notes but some. Flavour is pleasantly hoppy with a big whoppingly malty background. It could actually use some more hops in it with such a solid base of malt. Hints of caramel in the malt. Nice beer.

Kind of dark for an IPA, bordering between amber and brown, creamy light tan head. The malts have more of a caramel prescence to them, slightly sweet. Of course, a nice dose of hops giving you a pretty dry mouthfeel. Some toasty notes as well. Medium bodied. An interesting IPA, very good. Thanks NorthYorkSammy.

Nice amber color, thin white head and medium carbonation. Nice aroma of hops and caramel malt. Good hops flavor and bitterness but it is then balanced by a nice caramel, malty sweetness. Medium body, dry mouthfeel. The strenght of this beer resides in it balance. Very good.

Thanks Stephen (Tiggmtl) for this one. I purposely let this age for a few months to see where it would end up and boy am I glad I did. This became a beautiful mix of sweet malt and bitter hops. Taste has some roasted flavors as well as light caramel. Very dry, very good.

2003 bottle (Batch #1) thanks to Jeff (radiomgb). Pours a very coppery/amber color, crystal clear (filtered), quite shiny with a small white head. Aroma of light yeast, light red berries, and some dry, yet not overly bitter, hops. Flavor is a mix of lightly floral hops, some yeast, dough, and more light fruits. Toasted malt in here as well, somewhat astringent. Lightly grainy/chewy texture, good amount of wateriness. Strange one here, but at least it’s unique. Not "dry" in that it is super-hopped, but also no real sweetness from any significant caramel malting. Delicate, if somewhat thin of flavor. Clean, short finish. 6/4/7/3/13
2005 bottle Different recipe it seems. A much darker colored beer, deep amber-auburn with a big yellow head, well retained. Aroma of mounds of diacetyl at first, and the flavor is full of it too. Tons of thick toffee, butterscotch, cream and only light bitterness on the finish. Medium-full body does not disappoint and after giving this beer time to breath and warm, the diacetyl seems to vanish, leaving just a full flavor of caramel and honey, with light toasted malt. Low carbonation. Far, far better than the overly dry, astringent, perfumy rendition that they used to make, IMHO. 7/5/8/4/15

some grapefruit mid-sip. Chewy on some cookie crumbs and lemon rind. Crisp refreshing not-too-dry aftertaste, not bitter. Wonderful with meat sub or most fish. Well-made balance.
