Bouteille de 330 ml. Nez de houblon agrumes et floral en force avec des notes d’abricot, de pêche, de sel avec un petit côté poivrée piquant. La bière est de couleur blonde dorée légèrement trouble avec une belle mousse blanche compacte qui reste en force du début jusqu’à la fin. Première IPA Blonde que j’ai vue et bue. En bouche le corps est moyen avec une effervescence moyenne. Les saveurs sont non axées sur le caramel. On goute les abricots, les pêches, une amertume puissante légèrement poivrée. La finale est houblonnée et tranchante. Excellent

Nov 21, 2008 Pours a nice golden color with about two fingers of head.
Smell is rather floral with citrus and a bit of earthyness as well
The first flavor to hit is a strong grapefruit hop flavor followed by a ver small bit of grassyness. Malt balance comes in in the finish, especially as it warms. A bit of the floral tone from the spell is present but just lightly in the finish.
This is light and dry in the mouth, gets more heavy and cloying as it warms.
Another solid brew form Magic Hat. Very drinkable although I don’t know that I’d have more than one or two in a row. I wish they would make this one year round...

Oct 5, 2008 Bottle from trade with Butters. Poured orange with a creamy off-white head that settles to a thin layer and left light lacing. The aroma found caramel, orange and a light floral. The flavor had caramel a hoppy citrus. Medium body and a medium bitterness throughout. Nice!

Aug 25, 2008 This IPA poured a dark yellow colour with a fast dissipating rocky white head. To the nose there is scents of pine, grass, pineapple, lemon rine and a little yeast. First taste was smooth and at first was a nice even flavour of hopps. As it progressed the hopps became very potent. Almost getting acidic but not to an annoying level. Finish is bitter with flavours of lemons and grass. Very good.

Aug 17, 2008 Pours yellow-orange with a fine white head. Aroma is lightly grainy and hoppy. Mouth feel is moderate. Flavor is very hoppy, but well balanced with a sweet maltiness.
