BeerSaturday 387 - 1990 Old School IPA (Le Bilboquet)

in BEER14 days ago

Here's my entry for the BeerSaturday 387 with an IPA from a brewery I'm discovering, Le Bilboquet, the 1990 Old School IPA. I wasn't too keen on the design but it was on special offer 😀. We'll see if the content was better than the container.

Voici ma participation au BeerSaturday 387 avec une IPA d'une brasserie que je découvre, Le Bilboquet, la 1990 Old School IPA. Je n'étais pas trop fan du design mais elle était en promotion 😀. Nous allons voir si le contenu était meilleur que le contenant.

Here is the map of Quebec where I can show you precisely the location of the brewery. Le Bilboquet is located in Saint-Hyacinthe (1850, rue des Cascades to be exact). It's not very far from Montreal. There's also the BilPub in the same town, where you can enjoy their beers with a good meal.

Voici la carte du Québec ou je peux vous montrer précisément la localisation de la brasserie. Le Bilboquet est installé à Saint-Hyacinthe (1850, rue des Cascades pour être exact). Ce n'est pas très loin de Montréal. Il y a aussi le BilPub dans la même ville pour savourer leurs bières avec un bon repas.

1990 Old School IPA (Le Bilboquet)


📜 Brewery / Brasserie :

Le Bilboquet was founded by François Grisé and Natasha Talbot* in 1990, one of the oldest microbreweries in Quebec. In 2019, it was bought by Jonathan Robin who also owns the Noroi distillery. Since then, the brewery has continued to grow, with a second production unit producing 800 hectolitres each year. Perhaps it's no longer a microbrewery 🤔.

🍺 Tasting / Dégustation :

The 1990 Old School IPA is an IPA with 5.5% alcohol. The recipe aims to reproduce the origin of the IPA. In the 18th century, in order to prevent beer losing its flavour during transport from England to India, it was brewed with more hops. Le Bilboquet embarked on this adventure with Centennial, Magnum and Cascade hops. In the glass, the beer is a beautiful golden colour with a thick neck. On the palate, the hop flavour was too pronounced for me and the bitterness was poorly balanced. It's not my type of beer. But that won't stop me from trying other beers from this brewery.

La 1990 Old School IPA est une IPA avec 5,5% d'alcool. La recette voulait reproduire l'origine de l'IPA. En effet, au XVIIIème siècle pour que la bière ne perde pas son gout pendant son transport entre l'Angleterre et les Indes, elle était brassée avec plus de houblons. Le Bilboquet s'est lancée dans cette aventure avec les houblons Centennial, Magnum et Cascade. Dans le verre, on retrouve une très belle robe couleur or avec un col épais. En bouche, le gout houblonné était trop prononcé pour moi et mal équilibré au niveau de l'amertume. Ce n'est pas mon type de bière. Mais cela ne va pas m'empêcher de gouter d'autres bières de cette brasserie.

Design

Design-wise, as I said in the introduction, it's not my style either. I think it looks like a PowerPoint presentation. I'm being mean today 😀. But going on their Instagram account the other cans look better. I'm sure the next one from Bilboquet will be more to my taste.

Niveau design comme je le disais en introduction, ce n'est pas non plus mon style. Je trouve que cela fait présentation PowerPoint. Je suis méchant aujourd'hui 😀. Mais en allant sur leur compte Instagram les autres canettes sont plus réussies. Je suis sûr que la prochaine du Bilboquet sera plus à mon gout.

I'm being mean today

that happens when the beer isn't tasty 😆

Maybe you need to put it in your basement for 6 months to mimic the boat trip to India, then try it again lol

Perhaps I also need to add the roll of the boat 😂
