13/XI/16 - 33cl bottle from a trade @ home - BB: 3rd quarter/IV/18 (2016-1304) Thanks to Bierridder_S for the trade!

Clear red amber beer, creamy solid beige yellowish head, little stable, falls down quickly to a small layer of foam, bit adhesive. Aroma: some chlorine, sweet, mango notes, little soapy, caramel, malty, jam, bit oxidized. MF: soft carbon, medium body. Taste: very resinous bitter start, quite some grapefruit, more bitterness, pretty soapy, some caramel. Aftertaste: very bitter, harsh, medicinal, grapefruit seeds, way too bitter. Where's my tropical fruits? :(

12.5 cl. draft @ brewery. Darkest of the both for beer & head. Deep amber orange, lightly tanned head. Nose is weird like mild chamomile tea, sugar, mild bergamot, sweet tea & caramel but in an odd stale fashion. Taste is overripe fruit, fizzy but not very extremely so & definitely far less so than others, big sweet honey, light bitter herbal, overall muted wort & tea, carbonation starts feeling a bit too high after a while, brown sugar. Bit of a strange sweet wort, honey, tea, fizzy affair. Not really what I would call a DIPA.

Small whitish head over amberish orange beer. Rainwater, ever so slightly fruity... but mild, demure. Bit toasted (malts), I want to taste some hops, but to no avail, but for a faint metallic finish. Light, bit slick. Hopless. Hopeless?

Draft @ BBP. Cuivrée, col beige. Arôme au nez fruité, C-hops avec un Galena que j’attendais plus au niveau aromatique, surtout au rendu fruité - variant souvent sur les baies et léger épicé. Palais reste assez centré sur la malté, le tout est sec, petite rondeur rappelant presque le seigle. Note fine de pin, finement épicé, agrumes mais où une fois de plus, le malté enlève un peu de ce que j’attendais niveau houblonné.
