 Rastacouere (5283), Montréal, Quebec, Canada
Jan 28, 2008 Clear light amber shade. Gentle, mostly lasting off-white head. Unmistakenly American hops: woodsy, sharp, piney, grapefruity with the foresty touch that I often pick in the Chinook varietal. Unfortunately, it is not my favourite hop profile, but it is certainly well integrated. The pale malts underneath are a mix between bread and biscuit in there flavour development. Limited crystal proportion makes it dry and refreshing rather than sweet and clashing. Fresh and crafty IPA.
