La Morsure
Not sure how I feel about this one. Quenching. Hop profile is really nice, good citrus and melon with a pleasant bitterness in the finish. But that's all you can really say about it. Malt and body are non-existent.
Not a bad summer beer... But not exactly at a lawn mower price.

Sounds like you just described the perfect West Coast IPA. Will have to pick this up, too many IPAs I've bought from Ontario/Quebec are malt/crystal focused.Bytowner wrote:Not sure how I feel about this one. Quenching.

Alright, DDC are off the hook, but 98% of anything hoppy coming out of that province is not far removed from being terrible.jrenihan wrote:Largely true, but I think both Moralite and Yakima are very nice IPAs.liamt07 wrote:Quebec should just stay as far away as possible from IPAs.

Stick to the Belgian styles, boys.

I'd also suggest Catapulte, Leo's, Disco Soleil, Double Dose and Jukebox Distorsion.jrenihan wrote:Largely true, but I think both Moralite and Yakima are very nice IPAs.liamt07 wrote:Quebec should just stay as far away as possible from IPAs.

The Boreale IPA is half decent for a budget beer.
