| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 17/20 | Sep 7, 2009 Bottle @ Bar Volo: Pours amber, middling white head. Soapy, pine aroma wmakes way to aggressive hopping in the flavour, but with an interesting pine, pepper and caramel aftertaste. It’s excellent, and I’d love to try it on tap should I ever make my way to the brewery in Montreal. :( Magicdave6 (5490), London, Greater London, England

| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Sep 3, 2009 My go to IPA (considering I’m 500 meters from the brewpub). There are relatively few American IPA’s here in Quebec that are true to style. DDC’s example is one of the best. Big huge grapefruit hop flavor and aroma balanced by an overly caramelly body. Great. thedm (3834), Fort Wayne, Indiana, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Sep 2, 2009 This bottled brew from a bottle shop poured a large sized head of foamy finely sized tan colored bubbles that were long lasting and left behind a hazy strongly carbonated brown colored body and thick foamy lacing. The mild aroma was brown malt. The mouth feel was tingly at the start and at the finish. The nice flavor contained notes of caramel and brown malt. A decent one that I would consider buying again. Quite quafable. FishManLA (290), Abita Springs, Louisiana, USA

Aroma: Powerful nose of juicy citrus fruit hops and resin
Appearance: Hazy caramel color, foamy off-white head, and leaves a decent amount of lace
Flavor: Sweet matly flavor with balancing from a huge hop backing, a well made IPA
Palate: Dry finish, creamy mouthfeel, medium body, long finish, and nice all the way down
Overall Impression:
My second beer from Dieu du Ciel, and they are 2 for 2 for sure! Between these guys and Unibroue I guess I need to drink more Canadian beer... Anyway, as for this one, I’m impressed! This is a beer I could drink a lot of, and at 6.5% I probably really could drink a lot of it. A very tasty brew for sure, well down by our neighbors to the north.
