On tap at Open Baladin, Rome on 4th July 2018. Golden amber with thick but diminishing off-white foam and partial lacing. Intense grapefruit juice and peel in aroma. Grapefruit and peach dominate the liquid pass finish making for a highly flavoursome and rewarding ipa. Smooth yet engaging mouthfeel, and a lot of body. Possibly the finest IPA I’ve drunk in Italy so far.

bottle shared @ Pre Borefts tasting Thin white head. Cloudy amber pour. Slight bitterness. Maybe a bit too old. Tastes more like a pale ale rather than an IPA
