ABV: 5.2% IBU: - Ticks: 5
Rocksteady showcases the dynamic duo of cascade and chinook hops; filling the glass with citrus and pine aromas. A modern twist on the classic west coast IPA with haze and straw like colour. A light bitterness kicks off which becomes mellowed by the thick sweetness of the malt.

On tap at The Rusty Bucket, Eltham.
LocAle brew from my old hometown. Grapefruit, llemon marmalade, tropical fruit. Heavy citrus taste, more tropical fruits coming through. Fruity light bittersweet aftertaste.

Not bad. Some lemongrass. Pale bread, pine needles. Decent balance. Uninspiring but drinkable enough.

Keg at Craft Beer Junction, 12/11/2025.
Golden pour topped with an off white cap that thins to a swirl.
Nose is bitter orange, grass, airy malts.
Taste comprises grass, straw, melon, tangerine.
Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close spiked with modest hop bitterness.
Passable affair at best.

26/9/2025. Draft at the London Brewers Alliance Beer Festival 2025. Hazy/cloudy pour. Aroma is tropical, fruity, stone fruits, melon, grassy, touch husky herbal. Moderate sweetness, medium bitterness and body. Average carbonation. Nice if slightly modest IPA, but steps up well from an ISA and still very sessionable at 5.2%.
