This IPA packs a lovely combo of old and new hops with a dank lemony hit from the Centennial really adding a lovely zippy depth.

Can shared in London - sourced from the brewery. Pours hazy orange-gold with a frothy, white head. Nice tropical fruits in the nose, melon, tangerine, apricot. Light sweet flavour with some peach and apricot, rindy orange, tangerine, low bitterness. Light to meidum bodied with fine to average carbonation. Pithy finish, some pine needles, lemon rind, dried pale bread. Not bad.

440ml can. Murky golden with a frothy off-white head dissipating. Aroma has some very floral fruity hops, citrusy. Taste is fruity, citrus, lots of orange pith, floral perfume notes, grapefruit, lingering bitterness. Medium body, smooth, soft carbonation. This was almost too floral/perfumey/pithy for me, quite a different IPA than the usual from Verdant.

Can at home, 26th January 18. Pours a hazy orange. Aroma is floral, aromatic and citrus. Taste is orange and tropical fruit, floral hops, good malt balance, I found the carbonation and mouth feel slightly harsh, overall a very good IPA.

Can at home, thanks to the Wingman for picking up, 22/01/18. Hazed orange with anoff white cap that soon collapses. Nose is orange pith, light perfume, pine, soft brioche, faint dank hop chimes, melon, grass. Taste comprises orange pith, light pine, toasted breads, apricot, light floral bite, grapefruit. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with balanced hop bitterness. Respectable enough easy drinking IPA but lacking the usual hop bite you get from Verdant.

Can picked up from Trafalgar Wines, Brighton, Saturday 21st January 2018 consumed at home Sunday 22nd January 2018 whilst cooking a Spiced Lamb Hotpot and listening to The Liminanas new album.This appears to be a NEIPA so think murky, dirty gold with a white head. Juicy, hoppy really hoppy but this is wonderfully moreish. A little background sweetness. Wow this is a hopmonster, feels like beast and yet only 6% or something like that. I know I've been not described much about the flavour but hey-ho, never mind. A8 A3 T8 P4 Ov16 3.9

Can from Park Fever, Hither Green. Hazy light orange pour with a white head. Grapefruit, lemon peel, apricot and pineapple aroma. Same components make up the flavour. Light bitter finish. Nice.

Can. Mail order from Verdant. Orange gold, with a full on haze. Glossy topped, foamy, off white head. Nose has some unusual, lavender like, floral notes. Creamy oats and grain. Some more familiar, pineapple and ripe, citrus hop. Taste has more of the oaty, creamy sweetness, with a light, ripe, citrus zest bitterness. Soft mouthfeel. Bright carbonation. Fairly robust, citrusy, sharp bitterness to finish.
