Very white pour with lots of head. Very Belgian flavoufs with hop finish. Not bad but hybrid kinda weird.

Bottle: Poured a cloudy dirty amber color ale with a large off-white foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of strong peppery yeast notes with some citrusy hops notes is enticing enough. Taste is a mix of peppery yeast with some citrusy hops, light Belgian malt presence and some residual sugar notes are also apparent. Body si full with great carbonation. I really enjoyed the yeast strain that was used and the fact that the hops profile did not completely cover up the other flavours of this beer.

A:
Pours a hazy straw with a orange tint in the light. The head is a voluminous three+ finger puff of pale white, Belgian-looking head that barely settles for the first few minutes, or after that. Fat, clouds of lace, great retention. (4.5)

S:
Light yeasty spice with some citrus. Floral hops, some grassiness, peppery yeast, a ghost of a whiff of... green pepper(?). (3.75)

T:
Bracing (but not too assertive) flat hop bitterness that gradually gives way to a lemony finish with a dash of pepper and some mineral flavors. (3.75)

M:
Over-active carbonation, medium body, dry finish. (3.75)

O:
Pretty good beer.
This is quite a bit “lighter” than their other Belgian IPA. It looks nice, but is definitely a little over-carbonated. Both the smell and flavor are pretty simple and straightforward. The hops really don't take center stage (not that the yeast does either) and, even worse, there isn't much inter-play between the two components. A decent beer, but not a great one. (3.75)

Nice looking beer, light golden in color with lots of carbonation and a huge white foamy head.

Lots of Belgian yeasts in the nose, oily hops too and a little bit of pepper.

In the mouth the Belgian yeasts are still the main thing you notice. A subtle use of hops that makes it not too bitter with a good citrus flavor.

Really easy to drink, definitely gonna buy again.
