Canal Fatal
Messorem Bracitorium

Can: Poured a hazy/cloudy pale yellow color ale with a large white foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of citrusy hoppy notes with some juicy floral hops undertones with some tropical hops notes and a semi-sweet finale. Taste is also a good mix of citrusy hoppy notes with some juicy floral hops undertones with some tropical notes and a semi-sweet finish. Body is full for style with a creamy feel with good carbonation. Enjoyable NEIPA with the nice drinkability but more residual sugar than expected.

Draft at Messorem in Montréal. Poured out a cloudy, golden orange color with a small, off-white head of foam. It left sudsy lacing. It smelled of grapefruit, orange, guava and caramel. Great tropical fruit taste with caramel, toffee and a piney bitterness.

Decent IPA, showing more drinkability and malt over the hop. Maybe so you can drink more bit it does impact taste I want from the style. On tap at the source.

A-Hazy straw yellow with a marshmallow white head producing good lacing
S-Citrus aroma upfront with a sweet candied fruit background
M-Low end carbonation with a juicy mouthfeel and a somewhat watery body
T-Sweet grape fruit upfront with a very smooth citrus pith bitterness balance on the finish
O-Very nice brew indeed.

 

 

One month old. Can to wine glass.

L: Pours a milky light yellow with a fluffy white head that dissipates rather quickly and leaves a good amount of lacing. No floaters.

S: Candied lemon and grapefruit as well as white grapes and fresh strawberries.

T: Lighter notes of fresh citrus fruits, hints of strawberries and grassy green hops. Minimally sweet and slightly bitter.

F: Smooth and creamy with a low carbonation.

O: Very well executed single hop Citra IPA with the typical citrusy flavor notes. Smells and feels a bit fuller than it tastes. Nicely balanced and overall a pretty enjoyable beer.
