Can split at CBC Holborn, picked up at the GBBF, 29/08/18. Clearn golden amber with a big old egg shell white head. Nose is old skool IPA ... grassy notes, caramel, bitter orange, toasted grains. Taste comprises caramel malts, orange peel, citric tinged straw, light breads, grapefruit. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with earthy hop bitterness. Passable IPA but a ltitle tired in its outlook.

Can shared in London - cheers to Cloin. Pours totally clear copper with a small, foamy topping. Restrained, perhaps a little faded, with dry and bitter pine needles, grass, toasted pale malts. Medium. Ladies with fine carbonation. Subtle resin in the finish, followed by aggressive grassy bitterness. So so.

Can from GBBF 2018 and drunk at home. Russet dark amber colour. Lasting beige head. It's a bit understated but then livens up a bit. Malty, but not overly sweet. Hop flavour comes through in the mouth and on the end. Some gun oil hoppy finish like green hops. It's not a big showy IPA. It's malty yes. OK, not terrific, blow your socks off, but a decent IPA. OK so I'm going to give it a 3.5 I just can't give it more, but it's fine.

GBBF Day 1. Can. Hazy amber beer, good cream colour head. Airy palate, semi dry, decent fine carbonation. Malts are light but have a decent amount of toffee caramel, not that sweet. Resinous orange hops, slighty bitter peel. Litte fresher orange on the semi dry finish. Chewy malts, okay hops.

On tap at brewery. This comes off as a weak APA. Very faint aroma, followed by bland taste. Overall decent look and feel, but kind of bland.
