Keg at Popeye. Clear orange amber colour. Aroma very fruity orange, lemon, whole fruit bowl. Taste similar, quite light but plenty of flavor. Loads of fruit again, touch of malt too. Finish is crisp and bitter but not overpoweringly so. Very refreshing. Lovely.

Cask @ Moon Under Water, Manchester. A caramel-amber colour with a glow. Has a frothy head. This is a very malty brew with a potent nose in this respect, with a more dry, herbal aftertaste that lingers.

Pours a nice copper color. Aroma of malts, caramel, earthy hops. Flavor is full of the malt, but also has some nice hop bitterness. Not your normal IPA. Good, but hard to down a full pint.

Draught at Beer Works Osaka IPA Challenge. Very malty nose. Huge caramel, rounded and buttery. Sweet, malty flavor. Light hops but rich, lovely malt. A bit fruity at the finish, with a touch of lingering bitterness. Great malt show, though a bit too unbalanced. Very British in style. Decent bitter finish. You don’t find IPAs like this in Japan regularly. (Note: had it again, and although it kept the British malt character, the malt flavor was minimized and wild hop astringency reigned. I think he has yet to figure our what he wants to do here!)
