Aroma of sharp hops on some good sour grapefruit zest going on. Okay head and a slightly cloudy yellow. Flavour is aromatic but meaty hops with soft grapefruit hints. Good oilness on the mouth but not excessive. It's a good IPA effort, very drinkable.

Bottle shared at level 42 Canary wharf tasting. 5/4/2016. Many thanks to Colin for this one. Hazed dull golden coloured pour with a loose off white head. Aroma is Rye bread, perfumed citrus, orange rind. Candied hop on the nose. Flavour is composed of semi sweet caramel, candied pine and orange hop, dirty Rye bread. Palate is medium sweet, highish carbonation, sticky hop. Solid enough.

42nd Floor Tasting. Hazy gold beer, a few cream colour bubbles. Palate is airy and fairly dry, decent fine carbonation. Smooth malts with dry creamy sweetness. Little spice. Nice pine to mild citrus and a trace of tropical fruits. Light dry pithy finish. Tasty but dry.

Bottle thanks to Cloin. It pours lightly hazy amber with a medium white head. The aroma is soft, sweet, Bakewell tart, toasted almond, apricot, peach and honey cake. The taste is crisp, bitter, apricot, peach, straw, mild astringency, citrus peel and minerals with a dry finish. Medium body and moderate carbonation. Not bad.

Bottle shared in London - many thanks to Colin. Pours clear gold with a slight, bubbly white head. The nose holds white grape, ripe lemon, pale bread. Medium sweet flavor with lightly aged pine, golden raisins, some faint caramel, pale bread. Medium bodied with average carbonation. Little resinous on the finish with ripening citrus, more pale bread. Simple IPA. Not bad.
