Brasserie du Bas-Canada Ferme Moore – American IPA at 6.5% ABV (C$11.65 at Collective, 473 ml, packaged on 3-Mar-2026, acquired 6-Jul-2026, reviewed 20-Jul-2026)
Appearance: hazy pale gold with two fingers of pillowy pale ivory head, good retention and well-defined clingy lacing. (4/5) Aroma: melon, tropical fruit, white grape, dank resin. (8/10) Taste: moderate sweet, moderate-high bitter. (8/10) Palate: medium body, moderate-soft carbonation, lingering bitter finish. (4/5)
“DDH El Dorado, Nelson Sauvin, Amarillo, Motueka & Enigma” Nice one – fairly complex aroma and flavour profile, which is hardly surprising given the kitchen sink of hops they threw at this. Which sort of leads to a minor nitpick: it’s so hoppy that, even though I assume the majority of the hopping is dry, there’s a little hop burn through the finish. That’s a little out of character for a “traditional” hazy (whatever the hell that is, these days). I dunno if it’s any less stupid expensive at home, and if I actually cared about such things I’d probably say it wasn’t worth the price of admission – but I don’t, so I’m not. It’s an excellent beer that I’d love to try fresh on tap. (16/20)
This will be my 6,456th unique Untappd check-in.
