Dandy Brewing / Brasserie Dieu du Ciel! The Richard Riot American IPA at 6% ABV (C$8.99 at Willow Park Wine & Spirits, 650 ml, no packaging date or best before, acquired 27-May-2019, reviewed 2-Jun-2019)
Appearance: clear straw with two fat fingers of fluffy white head, excellent retention and heavy soapy lacing. (5/5) Aroma: citrus, resiny pine, tropical fruit, crackery malt. (8/10) Taste: moderate sweet, moderate-high bitter. (8/10) Palate: medium body, moderate carbonation, off-dry medium bitter finish. (4/5)
A solid IPA, with clean malt supporting a pleasant hop character including notes of citrus, pine, and tropical fruit. It’s not exactly the best DDC product (well, collab) I’ve had, but it’ll do. (16/20)
8/10 #ryansbooze ryansbooze.com
