Ça manque clairement de tout et ce ne sont pas les quelques saveurs florales en final qui me feront changer d'avis. Un jus de malt quoi mais pas une bière...

si on fait pierre feuille ciseau dans les bieres BAP BAP, c est celle la qui gagne. 👌

The final crew member of the flight 4/4 shows a rusty copper face. A creamy off-white lacing gives small bubbles that cling onto the glass tightly. My nose picks caramel malt, sweet biscuit and graham cracker. Dried apricot and a suggestion of raisin present the fruit crew. The gustatory sphere offers graham cracker, caramel malt and dried apricot but also fermented grapefruit and a twist of lemon pith. Obviously not a banger this one either. The body is light-medium. The end slide is modestly husky but basically the same cocktail as upfront prevails there, as well. And for a long time. The mouthfeel is light-medium, a bit crisp, equally slightly dry and drying. Like a wannabe old-school badass who is not really up to the badass standards. Eight taps in this place, two are empty, four tasted, two may remain untasted. Tonight's experience doesn't encourage me to do the rest. Yesterday's Fauve beats BAPBAP easily.

Flight 3/4 is a DDH IPA. The beer wears a hazy, deep yellow uniform, like one could anticipate. The velvety froth is long-lived and remains more or less there until the glass is empty. And again: subdued scent. I pick modest pineapple and lemon pulp. Basically fruity but so so suppressed. What's wrong with my selection today? The taste profile puts a bit of effort in the engine: grapefruit pulp and peel, faint dried apricot and a resinous vibe. Okay, what confused me here was that this app listed this beer as an NEIPA although it's actually an American IPA. Now corrected. The color could well be that of an NEIPA but the taste deviates from the proven path. But now that I know that this is actually an American IPA, it makes sense. The body is light. I was hoping for more... No can do. The finish is grapefruity and lemony, nicely juicy but nothing more. Keeps my tastebuds busy for a good while. The mouthfeel is light, zesty, juicy, crisp, pithy, a tad dry and drying. Not old-school but not adventurous either. Could work on a hot summer day.

Flight 2/4 goes with blueberries. Mmmm. Love blueberries. Murky burgundy is the tint. A faintly pinkish head adorns the surface for quite some time. This beer has the same problem as the previous one what comes to the fragrance. I get almost nothing. I don't know if it's blueberry or what but something distant hovers there that reminds me of the summer gone by. The taste profile is somewhat mild but the blueberry is clearly recognizable. Maybe also a drop of blackcurrant juice can be found. A soft wheaty backbone but quite impotent anyway. The body is thin to light minus. Okay, the ABV isn't more than 4 %. The end is sour-forward with watery blueberry mash and wheat malt. Remains long in the mouth. The mouthfeel is thin, a bit tart and tries to pucker me up but can't really make it that far. It's juicy, a tad flat and characterless. Unfortunately. By no means weak but there's room for improvement.
