    I wish you hadn't said that. Even though I didn't taste the earwax I kept expecting to.

    Damn man you had to do that to me, :slight_frown: the 2 quebec DIPA/IIPA's im missing that were apparently worth getting are Tribale and Super A. You clearly made super A sound like the better of the 2 and its the hardest to get. XDDD lol

    A night spent with a few friends in my basement. The 2 blanks in the middle are Westy 8's my buddy brought back from Belgium.

    If possible, I'd hook fresh Moralité to my veins:[​IMG]

    Was it any good? I had one of those last year and it was one of the most repulsive things I've ever put in my mouth. And I ride my bike with my mouth open on occasion.

    I think I rated it worse than you did, I felt like Every flavor in the beer was trying to be number one. Nothing was subdued they all just jumped up and attacked your palate. ill share my review in a second.

    @TheDoctor
    2.54/5 rDev -21.8%
    look: 4.5 | smell: 2.25 | taste: 2.25 | feel: 2.75 | overall: 2.75

    Appearance - This beer pours a foggy golden brown with 4 fingers of head which fade slowly but even 10 mins later still has a finger and a half. The head is a soft white almost like a marshmallow .

    Aroma - lots of citrus on the nose, grapefruit, orange peel, peach, a bit of mango, not much else going on in the hop department but they try to balance the bitter sweet citrus juice with pale crackery malts. Its almost like saltine crackers in the background. The aroma just doesn't do it for me.

    Taste - The taste is the same pretty much, you get citrus rind bitterness up front from the grapefruit and orange peel, a light sweetness of peach and mango. The bitterness almost feels soapy. Then they try and balance this out with pale malts but do to the strength it just doesn't work out all that well.

    Feel - Not much to say here , the feel gives a touch more to this beer than the flavor and aroma but not all that much. It's pretty close to full bodied and almost chewy and the carbonation is creamy which is the only thing helping it go down.

    Overall - I was intrigued by the logo and sold by the bottle. It seemed like there may have been potential for something interesting, Its not god awful but its pretty close. There are way to many flavors fighting to be the top dog. they all want to shine and get in the way of one another. This would be a pass for me!

    I havn't seen it yet, the shop I frequent is small, He is missing some brewers the biggest being dunham but Clearly he doesn't have loup rouge either, Does peluso have the loup rouge version? if they do I'll ask for it next time I get down there?

    Not to answer for him, but its a bigger verion of moralite, has a bit of a syrupy taste and when I first tried it I thought it was the best offering, Since than I've tried a few others and would put them ahead of it!

    I wish I had tried immoralite fresh. Just had my last bottle (dated March 18) and nothing like fresh moralite. It is a decent DIPA, but there are a lot I'd put ahead (Super A, Robohop, Immodest).
