Bottle shared at Leightons pad. Many thanks to Leighton for this one. Aroma is nice juicy passion fruit, mango, spicy pineapple, canned pineapple. Light hazed orange / golden coloured pour with a thin white head. Aroma is pretty good. Flavour is composed of sweet orange peel, passion fruit, rough bitterness, light biscuit malts. Some toast. Palate is semi sweet and moderate carbonation, little cloying. Ok, not great.

Bottle shared in London - picked up at the brewery. Pours clear gold with a creamy white head. The aroma holds ripe citrus, some pine, pale wood. Medium sweet flavor with some flinty minerality, pine needles, dry pale bread, moderate bitterness. Lightly warming to finish with more minerals and pine needles, pithy citrus, some rindy bitterness. Not bad.

Bottle from Sourced Market St Pancras and drunk at home. Hazy dark amber lasting off white head. Syrupy hoppy dipa aroma. Big resiny grapefruit. It’s a decent dipa. quite light whilst being strong. some bitterness, quite soft in mouth. it’s earthy and resiny. kind of ok. Decent. competent. ok.

660ml bottle, thanks to Mr J. Bunce - cheers! It pours hazy deep orange with a decent bubbly white head. The nose is pine needles,wood, resin, dirt and grapefruit. The taste is bitter, wood, resin, pepper, some alcohol, toffee, light astringency, pine, varnish, leather, lemon rind, orange, good hit of grapefruit and leather with a rather dry finish. Medium+ body and fine carbonation. Pretty punchy stuff and thankfully not too sweet. Works rather well though.
