A liberal addition of Anchovy hops helps this pale find balance between delivering modern, nuanced hop aroma and keeping faithful to the west coast style. A swell of watermelon and lemon pith up front is followed by a pronounced expression of the hops' woody, piney quality, partnering well with a firm bitterness and an ultra clean finish.

Foamy white head on a hazy pale golden coloured body.
Weed aroma.
Medium bodied, foamy with a loose cloying back.
Lime, herbal, fairy liquid, lemon & grapefruit tastes with a bitterly hopped finish.
Strange taste on the back of this.

Can at home shared with Laura. Clear pale golden color, small white head. Aroma and flavor are lightly malts, nicely hoppy, hoppy bitter, nicely lingering bitter finish. Very solid, it's gone in no time. I liked it.

440ml can. Clear golden with a white head. Aroma of candied berries and pick n mix sweets, grapefruit. Taste is similar, sweet berry fruits, raspberry, strawberry, grapefruit, piney resin, moderate bitterness. Medium bodied.
This worked much better as a pale than it did as the IPA "Familiar Turns", keeps its West Coast character and bitterness. Good stuff.

Can. Bright clear gold beer, small and short lived off white head. Light palate, a very mild dryness, a good fine minerally crispness. Light malts, clean and providing a modest level of sweetness, right for this brew. Anchovy hops bring crisp cooling pine, a crisp light skunk, crisp lemon balm and a little bitterness. Crisp finish brings a mild bitterness. Nice clean West Coast Pale. No caramel, no tired citrus peel and clean as a whistle.

Plugs & Taps Preston Track Tap Takeover Beer#1. I initially ordered two beers, both hazy, so had to ask which was the mist when served! Hazy yellow-gold in appearance. It's crisp and tropical fruity, and appealing for it, especially as it does not feel its strength.
