Bottle (from Ales by Mail). Amber colour with some floaties and a mediumsized white fluffy head. Aroma is glueish alcohol, some fruity and floral tones with mild hopburn to it. Flavour is sweet grains, some alcohol, fruity, nectary and floral tones with a bit of sugary tones too. Alcohol makes it rather nastily sweet.

Thin off white head left a spotty cover on a still amber body. Stewed fruit, malt & resin aroma. Medium to full bodied, tingly on the tongue with a thick cloying back. Malt, syrup, resin, pine, stewed fruit, jam & tropical tastes with a alcohol/hop burn on the finish.

Can at home, from Siren online, 24/11/20. Clear golden amber with a well presented egg shell white head that dissipates but stays for the show. Nose is sweet malts, caramel, bitter orange, grapefruit, boozey times, soft woods. Taste comprises sticky tropical fruits, orange wine gums, pine resin, grapefruit, sweet mango pulp, blood orange, residual sugars. Full bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with a sweet booze soaked climax. Decent DIPA ... old skool leaning and boosty ... veering towards a barley wine at times. A touch overly sweet for my palate but good fun.

Can. Clear gold beer, thin white head. Palate is light and smooth, fairly dry with decent fine carbonation. Smooth malts, a light sweetness. Resinous hops, resinous ripe pine and mango. Nibbly hop spice. Light smooth piney finish. God! A clean dipa, rare enough to cause a near panic attack! Everything is a hazy dipa these days, according to the wisdom of Ratebeer.. Ummm, cedar.. it's a big punchy wood and it is not hard to detect. Except here. Light finish. Jeez. Nice to have a clean dipa for a rare change but the cleanliness doesn't not prevent it being underwhelming for me.
