Lager légère finement fumée. Brune claire.

Pale Ale en mode NEIPA. J’aime bien!

Another Qrew. A Japanese Lager, brewed with rice. Surprise me positively! The appearance is relatively lucid straw. The carbonation is outward-oriented as a white, basically bubbleless head climbs two fingers high. The fast disappearing froth leaves a neat lacing plus big wrappings on the glass thereafter. Cereal, particularly rice krispies, in the fragrance. Yes. No steam rice. A small injection of lemon maybe but that's it. Very simple and straightforward. The taste is a bit thin, slightly sweet and leaves more questions than gives answers. Rice krispies bring a cerealy slam to the tastebuds. A small tweak of white sugar? Lemon zest and lemonade. A whisper of orange, too. The body is thin. What else? The style doesn't promise much more, yet the ABV clocks 5 %. Not watery in that sense. The finish serves exactly the same components as upfront, up to the level of mild cerealy sweetness. And it dies relatively fast. The mouthfeel is thin, zesty, soft, smooth and significantly easy. Characterless. But is it because of the style or within the style? Remains unanswered. Also marginally lip-glueing. A difficult substyle for me, definitely not my favorite but I still try to be honest with the style qualifications. Okay, this is the second best place in Geneva. La Jonquille is, of course, number one, no question about it. This is not only for beers but all kinds of alcohol. And cannabis. Even some small snacks. Now I need to find out who the h*ll is Tom.

Is this my first beer by Qrew? Yes or is! At least, it looks thick and delicious: cloudy, banana yellow, a bit overripe maybe. The pic, unfortunately, displays it darker than it is. The head is like whipped cream but not as white. Creamy rather. I mean colorwise. A full-fledged mousse on the top anyway. Two fingers initially, descends gradually to a still lovely lacing on the top. Extraordinarily dense ornaments on the rim of the glass. This can't go wrong. Or... Cream in the air. Big time. Now we have papaya in the scent. Wow! You don't get it too often in this magnitude. I can also find banana — no, I don't consider it an off-flavor here —, mushy mango, pitaya, kiwifruit and marginal but noticeable strawberry. Now we have tropical fruits like there's no tomorrow. Oh yes! 🥭🍌🥝🍓  I would bet for lactose, as well, this is soooo milkshakey. And I haven't even tasted the beer, yet. [Now sipping...] What!! I was prepared for a flat tire but in vain. I can still enjoy tropical flavors: papaya and mango, for sure. Maybe even a suggestion of durian without its stale odor. Banana, kiwifruit, strawberry, also some ripe pineapple and blood orange. And, yes, lactose. Mixed with cream. Milkshakey for sure! Apparently oat flakes the grainbill. The body clocks almost full. Let's lock the answer to medium-full then. The finish is pretty identical to upfront flavorwise but the creaminess declines and the citrusy side intensifies somewhat. Not massively though. The mouthfeel is medium-full, truly creamy, milkshakey, soft and smooth. It's also juicy, pulpy and tropical. Very seductive. If my first ever touch to Qrew is so inspiring, I should definitely learn more about it.

IPA opaque et légèrement acidulée. Nez bizarre, mais bouche sympa.

Double IPA dense et puissante. Bravo l’équipe!

Belle Sour ronde en bouche 😋

Beau mariage de tout les ingrédients, belle rondeur en bouche 😋
