Thanks to erric for this one and lots of goodies from Kuhnhenn. Shared with rudzud.

Light fizzy smaller head, touch of lacing, semi hazy copper slight reddish color.

Nose boozy sweet malt, candy slight syrupy, Belgian esters, light phenols too, big sweet aromas with a bit of honey, simcoe is there but less than I expected, a light musty cat piss but also some tropical fruit with a light pineapple, grapefruit, touch of citrus, light candied orange peel.

Taste is very different than I expected, a bit fruity flavor like generic fruit punch, big booze, esters, phenolic booze, apple and pear like, light cardboard too. There is some simcoe, musty cat piss again, light pineapple, touch of citrus, etc. Fair bitterness. Then sweet syrupy malts, Belgian like golden with a sweet syrupy candy. There is a honey too, but a dried honey, and big earthy dirt like flowery honey flavor. Very strange overall flavor. Finish is still syrupy sweet, fair bitterness, more booze, light phenols and esters, but if sticky candy malts, dried honey, and but of pineapple and simcoe hop flavours, late yeasty flavor too.

Mouth is med to fuller bod, despite tasting the alcohol it doesn't burn, lighter carb too.

Overall not impressed at all.

Simco Sillier on tap 11/13/15. Poured a light, reddish brown with a thin head that dissapated and left moderate lacing arounf the glass. Smelled of malty sweetness and hops. Taste is similar, with fruity notes. Full mouthfeel. Overall, I'm glad I got to try this. It is exceptionally smooth for 12%.

Pours amber with nice head. Aged a little longer than I'd like in my fridge. Simcoe and Belgian yeast give it a nice sweet malty and citrus flavor. Smooth and easy drinking. Held up well.

Short Review. This is a nice Belgian style DIPA, the hop flavors are big and fruity with lots of tropical and citrus aspects making for a pineapple orange juice like flavor, plus they go great with the Belgian which shows up just enough and it never gets to be too overpowering. The alcohol was pretty well hidden, this would be deadly in the summertime. I was impressed with this one and I really enjoyed it.
