destroye7 (264), Melbourne, Australia Nov 1, 2005 Bottle. Strong IPA taste. Good foamy head. Only one bottle in the 6 pack changed itself into foam when I opened it. I recommend the tulip glass to taste the bitterness. aerosol999 (113), Quebec, Canada Aug 26, 2006 Aroma: Sweet, floral hop nose, biscuity and crytal malt nice balance of sweet malt and hop character.
Flavour: Floral hop flavour dominates but well balanced with a sweet malt character. Strong bitter profile which is not resinous. Malt supports strong bitter hang, A bittersweet delicious lingering flavour light oxidized character (low fill)
Palate: Medium light body with a fluffy carbonation
Appearance: fluffy white head with a tight bead. Deep straw/gold colour leaves a ring of belgian lace around the glass as you drink it. To my eye, a bit of a low fill on the bottle. SimonPatrice (312), Montréal, Quebec, Canada Oct 30, 2002 (bottled) Amber color, quick falling head. Hoppy fruity aroma, becomes maltier as it warms. Fresh hop flavor with grapefruit zest. This beer tastes green. heemer77 (3827), Savannah, Missouri, USA Jun 6, 2006 From a bottle. A light orange body with an off white head. The aroma was lots of grapefruit with some walnuts and a little caramel. The taste was balanced with some peppers and grapefruit. There was also a little bit of sweet toffee. collieman (192), montreal, Quebec, Canada Feb 4, 2005 Updated: Apr 24, 2005Intresting. Labeled as a India Pale Rouse, {a uniquely quebec {as far as I’m aware} style that simply cuts the high malt level of a normal ipa with a little {or somtimes alot} of roasted barley, darkening the colour and adding a slight nuttyness.you see it more and more from quebec micros}. pours deep red, almost brown, white whispy head, gone in a second. Aroma is floral hops, smoth palate, low carbonation. Slight sweet malt, tiny bit of roasted barley {probably why it’s so dark} Small amount of very bitter hops. Second taste is malty, nuts, roast. After taste sweet malt with bitter undertones. Not bad, worth a try. Cheers
