650ml bottle - a 'triple dryhopped' Tripel Belgian IPA. Uhhhhh...got it?
This beer pours a clear, medium golden amber colour, with four fingers of puffy, loosely foamy, and bubbly ecru head, which leaves some decent Swiss cheese pattern lace around the glass as it rather lazily recedes.
It smells of bready and doughy caramel malt, canned pineapple, a further indistinct red berry fruitiness, subtle earthy yeast, and some plain leafy, weedy, and musky floral hop bitters. The taste is gritty and grainy cereal malt, muddled domestic citrus peel, an estery yeastiness, candi sugar, and more understated leafy, musty, and perfumed floral hoppiness.
The carbonation is average in its palate-satiating frothiness, the body a solid middleweight, and mostly smooth, with nothing really popping its head up to cause any ruckus at the particular juncture. It finishes off-dry, the malt and obscured frooty notes presiding.
Overall - well, this comes across as more of a Tripel, than a big IPA, with the malt and yeasty essences sealing the deal. Speaking of which, the 22-proof booze quotient is sublimely integrated, so Imma just gonna get a bit more cozy with the rest of this offering, while I read about impending doom - ya know, Twitter!
