On tap at The Craft Beer Co St Mary Axe. I’m guessing it’s this 6.0% abv and definitely tye spiciness in the mouth. I like rye ipa on the whole the spicy rye adds to the hop bitterness and gives it depth and character. Very drinkable rye ipa . Nothing flash just very competent. Gives me a nice bitter fizz on the finish.

Not retired it seems. Tap at Cherry Reds, Birmingham. 6.8%. Poured a clear medium amber with a frothy white head and a few bubbles. The aroma is big orange marmalade citrus. The flavour is moderate bitter with some sweet notes and a rich, fruity, hop bitter, light alcohol palate. Medium bodied with average carbonation.

Hazy amber beer which is very lively out of the bottle with an enormous, frothy head. Yeasty, fruity, hoppy scent. Flavour is initially quite mellow. Some tropical fruit, bitter earthy hop and some sharp malty flavour in there too. Not a huge amount of aftertaste but there is a lingering citric bitterness. Good, strong, crisp beer.
