2.5Amertume assez fort mais bonne IPA
3.3Clear golden with a good white head, good lacing.
Aroma: Hops: Citrus, grapefruit, some herbal notes. Also some malts: hay, grains, a hint of caramel.
Mouth: Initial fruity sweetness but dominated by hoppy bitterness. Medium body. Smooth texture.
3.735.5cl bottle from online shop, drinking it @home on 12/07/2021 BB 01.01.22 Pours a hazy orangy dark amber/gold with a regular, thin white head fluffy on top and lots of lacing. Aroma is malty and hoppy, with good fruit notes, citrus, tangerine, grapefruit, piney and resinous notes. Taste is quite fruity and sweet with good malt, citrus, tangerine, grapefruit, biscuit, floral flavours and a moderate bitter, spicy hops finish that i quite like. The aftertaste is quite fruity and floral. Quite easy and mild bitter overall, maybe not the freshest bottle of ipa i ever tried but extremely enjoyable and easy to drink with a really nice finish. Medium light body, slightly more smooth and watery texture and soft carbonation. Honestly i enjoyed it, very nice IPA that could maybe be slightly less sweet in the start but really good overall.
4.2This is a really good high quality ipa. Great mouthfeel. Citrus and fruity. Ticks the boxes.
3.4Bottle from Beers Of Europe. Clear deep golden body with an off-white head. Steady carbonation. Faint lacing. Aroma of honey and orange. Flavour of Lockets and peach. Medium body with a smooth texture. Soft fizz. Overly sweet but an enjoyable IPA.
4.0@ Home - da Abbazia Tre Fontane Roma
3.533 cl. bottle at home. High flufy long lasting white head. Hazy amber body. Dusty straw malt aroma with mild fruity notes. Nicely hopped straw malt fruity flavor with a low carbonation and a long finish.
2.7Une bière jaune dorée, claire, transparente avec une mousse cotonneuse. Je suis très mitigé sur la bouche et le nez, j'imagine qu'elle est excellente vu les notes, mais je n'adhère pas totalement.
3.0Dejlig øl, med en gylden farve. Duften er ok, og en eftersmag der ikke er for overdrevet. Alt i alt en god øl
3.6Amber color with lacing off-white head. Aroma has caramel, citrus, pineapple, spices and some yeasty notes. Taste is malty sweet with long bitter and dry aftertaste. Flavors of grapefruit, pine, resin and yeasty earthy notes. Not very fresh but still good.
3.3Bought at the carefour in Malmedy, during our vacation.
Golden colored beer with a small , but stable white head.
Medium bitterness, taste of biscuit, citrus, pine and some floral notes. Long aftertaste from the hops.
2.8Smell-weak hops, later some fruits.
Foam- thin bit to medium, hops, acidic notes, and more bitter hops. The head is small, white color or creamy white color. Sticks.
Appearance- nice-looking brewer bottle cap, classic look. Hazy orange color, low carbonation.
From- snifter
Taste- hops, bitterness, a bit of citrus and bit of yeast. All quite overwhelmed with more hops and bitterness what stay in the aftertaste for quite some time. Mix with alcohol is good, I barely feel it, but it is present. A bit too bitter for me, but its IPA, would like it to be a bit more fruity.
3.5Brutál komlós és brutál keserű, érdekes
3.0Smaakt naar Citroën. Weinig referenties om te vergelijken.
3.6Bardzo Fajnie się to pije . Ale do końca nie wiem dlaczego . Chmiel jest , nie słodkie , fajna goryczka
3.3Bitter, pompelmoes, hop
3.3lichtjes zoete geur, het bittertje van de ipa vond ik zeker niet uitgesproken, het zal de wereld niet schokken
4.0Hoppy, floreal....long long food taste
3.0bottle @ Marino's Beverage Depot / Sylvania OH --- Btld 08/09/18 --- Aroma of malt and odd hops. Cloudy dark amber color, white head that drops to a full cover, sheets of lace. Taste is malt and neutral hops in medium carbonation. Both move smoothly hand-in-hand through a long finish. Because it is a year old, this brew shows its credentials while lacking refinement. I'd like a fresh one, please.
3.5As Spencer Trappist India Pale Ale.
Bottled 0.355L. HAzy and unclear orange/yellow color, light bubbly and creamy white head of long resistance. Moderate sweet malty aroma, light notes of citrus, pine, cookies, fruity hops. Medium prickly traste, oily to watery texture, modest carobonation, sweet biscuits and malty palate, notes of citrus, pine, hoppy and dry/arid final.
3.3355ml bottle at home on 14th July 2019. Misty golden body, bubbly white crown. Yeasty, orangey aroma, taste also has a yeasty and orange lead. Good hop bitterness majors flavour wise.
4.27 juillet 2019 : 4.1
Les moines peuvent donc aussi faire de bonnes ipa. Résineuse, houblonnée fruitée, maltée, une ipa typique du style américain et réussie.
8 mars 2020 : 4.3
Du ricain pur jus, bien fait. Résineuse, amère, fruitée. Mais le pur jus à un prix (élevé).
3.6Hazy orange pour with thin head. Sweet nose. Tones of tangerine, apricot and pine. Decent ipa
4.233 cl bottle at Kulminator, shared with my dad.
It pours very hazy orange to amber with a short-lived, off-white head.
There are two main scents: a conspicuous aroma of tea and a secondary citrusy one (say orange and sweet lemon.)
Low carbonation. Medium crispness (so drink it fresh, even chilled.) Full body, high bitterness. Dry, long-lasting finish with more notes of black tea.
So far, the closest a beer has come to tea in my experience. Very interesting.
3.7couleur orangé-jaune, amertume moyenne/longue en bouche, boire avec comté
3.70.355l bottle. Murky orange body with floating sediments and a thin white head. Aroma and taste of biscuit, pine, tangerine, apricot and some floral notes. The bitterness in the finish lasts long. Nice one.
3.533 cl bottle at home. Drank on April 18th 2019 as Specer IPA (7,2%). Decent IPA.
3.3Barwa bursztynowa, lekko zmętnione. Piana biała, skromna.
Nos: przejrzałe owoce egzotyczne, biszkopt, przyprawy, kwiaty
Paszcza: wytrawne, goryczka średnia w stronę wysokiej (dość gładka), niska słodycz, niska kwaśność, ciało średnie w stronę wysokiego, wysycenie średnie w stronę niskiego.
W sumie niezłe, ale brakuje mi tej świeżości, która mi pasowała w innych IPAch.
3.9Servida en su copa. Dorada anaranjada y turbia, con espuma blanca fina y de retención pobre. Una IPA trapense de corte americano. Aromática con notas tropicales, resinosas, florales y suavemente cereal húmedo. Textura seminoleosa, cuerpo medio y gas moderado. Gusto más complejo con toques dulces de malta, fruta madura y miel, bien equilibrada con amargor resinoso, herbal y algo especiado. Buena IPA.
4.9Аромат: мёд, воск, полевые цветы, зеленый хмель.
Вкус: насыщений, горький, маслянистый. Превосходно збалансирований, один из лучших IPA что я пил.
