Tap at Devil Craft. Amber colour, thin golden head. Aroma resinous hops, quite full on, some small citrus and grass elements too. Bit of spiky malt. Taste is initially hoppy, cat pee sharp, bit of malt there in the background too. Quite spiky. Tastes like a DIPA, more boozy than it is (was listed as 5%). Maybe I don't like galaxy hops,or maybe it's the cold but not that interesting for me. Not bad, but just not that interesting. Rerate Dec 15. Much nicer than i said before. Has it changed or have I? Initial big burst of grassy bitterness. Further sips mellow into some caramel, pineapple, light tropical fruit. Nice. Still something a bit skunky. Nice though.

Tap at Matilda. Orangish amber with a 2 finger head that dissipates fairly quickly. Orange aromas with some very subtle grapefruit and berry. Medium to heavy body with a slightly oily mouthfeel. A tad boozy as well for the abv. Very bitter on the palate. Spiky bitter finish that lingers. Not bad. --- Beer merged from original tick of Galaxy IPA on 29 Dec 2015 at 22:23 - Score: 7.

On tap at Tadg’s. Wow, two days in a row I get great Japanese IPAs. It poured an amber gold with a decent head. A nice fruity, peppery & spicy aroma. The taste was great, fruit, spice, some mild pine notes and a sweet malt base at the end. My kind of IPA, not so bitter but nicely complex. ---2nd time at Tadg’s again--- 7% a fruity spicy nose on a clear amber body. Smooth medium bodied with a tasty fruity spicy flavor. Very nice. I’ll have to give brewing with galaxy hops a shot.
