Level 42 bottleshare, Santa is flying past below! Thanks to Paul for the can. Hazy gold beer, tidy pale cream colour head. Palate is airy, dry and has decent carbonation. Dry pale malts, light creamy sweetness. Spicy floral mid that turns bitter. A touch of tropical fruits before a softish and dry finish. Spicy bitter linger. Robust.

Can picked up in Houston, shared at level 42. It pours lightly hazy golden with a medium white head. The aroma is cracker, spice, bready malts, orange peel and hay. The taste is crisp, rather punchy bitterness, peppery spice, rye, grapefruit, orange peel, and resin with a dry, peppery finish. Medium body and moderate carbontion. Pretty drinkable stuff. Not bad.

Can split at L42 Xmas Nekkid Fisting, thanks to Bropey, 19/12/16. Light haze on a golden amber pour with a fast collapsing off white head. Nose is caramel, grains, straw, toasted malt, orange peel, light pine. Taste comprises tangerine, straw, pine needle, melon, orange pith, grapefruit. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, drying close peppered with semi aggressive hop bitterness. Decent enough IPA.

Can shared in London - thanks to Scopey. Pours unclear orange with a frothy, white head. Bland aroma, faint pine, pale bread. Medium sweet flavour with crackery pale malts, bitter pine, orange rind. Medium bodied with fine to average carbonation. Rindy and resinous in the finish, a little grassy, with more orange peel, crackery pale malts. So so.

Location: Draft at the Richmond Arms, 4/23/14
Aroma: The nose is rye malts, spice, some citrus hops, and a little pine
Appearance: It pours a reddish-orange color with a beige head and decent lace
Flavor: The taste is much the same, nicely hopped, citrus mostly, with a good amount of spice
Palate: The body is medium, it has a clean feel, and a nice, mid-dry finish to it
Overall Impression: I thought this was a pretty nice example of a rye IPA. Good stuff.
