9 September 2018. At Brouwbar, Ghent. Shared with Anke.
Pours clear golden with a lasting, big, foamy, white head; lots of lacing. Fresh aroma of peach, red apple, red grape, mango, grapefruit peel, kiwi, faint almond & bread. It tastes light fruity sweet, hints of peach & mango, and light to medium hoppy bitter, grapefruit peel & orange rind; bit bready with a touch of raisin. Dry, peppery & almost resinous hoppy finish but quickly balanced by a lingering fruitiness and warming alcohol. Medium body, slick/oily texture, soft carbonation. Subtle, elegant, easily drinkable DIPA - though I'd prefer the NEIPA too!

Tap at the brewpub. Orange-amber, hazy, with a thick head. Nose is Sprite, lemon-lime soda, light caramel. Sweet and fruity, some pine, lemon-lime, orange, candy. Prickly, bitter finish.

Brouwbar’s take at the classic DIPA style, launched a mere two weeks ago, tasted from tap at the brewpub yesterday. Tightly membranous-lacing, bit irregular, dense and creamy, egg-white head on a hazy, deep amberish orange peach blonde beer with fine strings of sparkling at the sides. Aroma of fresh blood orange, mango juice, lychee wine, caramel candy, ripe strawberry, gin, lime zest, orange blossoms, sweet paprika, tamarillo, white bread dough, light toast. Sweet onset, tropical tamarillo, mango and mangistan notes with a dash of banana, fizzy carbonation with minerally side effects, full, pleasantly rounded, slick body. Caramelly, ‘cleanly’ bready, bit honeyish malt sweet core with a light nutty touch, supporting an elegantly aromatic ‘hop fruitiness’ reminiscent of mango, tangerine and lychee with a refreshing, thinly lime-like sourish touch and followed by warming, gin-like alcohol. Sweetness lingers, while the hop bitterness, all things considered as this is, in the end, intended to belong to one of the hoppiest beer styles in the world, remains fairly soft and gentle so that sweetness remains the main factor. Pleasant, elegant and very modern, dedicedly non-Belgian beer like most of this sympathetic brewery’s other creations, deliberately intended to remain accessible to a larger audience and for that reason not going into overdrive in hop bitterness – but a big, old school wave of piney, resiny hop bitterness is actually what I was hoping for… Like their regular IPA and black IPA, this one needs more hop bitterness to become truly great, but from a technical viewpoint, this is again very clean, smooth, elegant and flawless like their other beers.

Little cloudy orange beer, creamy dens yellowish head, pretty stable, bit adhesive. Aroma: bubble gum, sweet caramel malts, tropical fruits, orange peel, orange juice, strawberry jam (which is weird, cause usually I only get this when an DIPA is starting to age a bit), grains. MF: soft carbon, medium body. Taste: sweet malts, come caramel, fruity, bit cheesy, chewy hops. Aftertaste: some sweet malts, caramel, orange peel, soft bitterness, slightly acidic. Supposedly a 99 IBU, so surprisingly balanced and rather sweet than bitter for a beer with this much hops in it! Decent one, but I prefer the NEIPA... ;-)

Draft @ Brouwbar. Very hoppy aroma, lots of tropical fruits, some citrus. Taste is sweet pine, pineapple, bitter hoppy finish. Very nice.
