Tap at the King William IV. Poured a very slightly hazy straw colour with a frothy white head and lots of bubbles. The aroma is citrus hop. The flavour is moderate to strong bitter with a super strong grass pine needle citrus hop palate. Medium bodied with lively carbonation. A real hop fest.

On tap @ Copenhagen Beer Celebration 2014. It's somewhat clouded this one, pale golden, Well almost pale more golden and it has a ice lacing off-white head. The nose is really fresh! Superbly inviting and fresh. Like smelling green hop flowers almost. Lots of fresh citrus and line zest. Brett also? Really nice this. U fortunately not as fresh in the taste. Slightly grainy, but it's not all bad. Floral flavors. Green grass peach juices and a gentle bitterness. Some butter as well. Yeah all in all a nice little IPA. 02.05.2014

Keg at The York Tap. Pours hazy yellow gold, thick white head, high carbonation. Massive pineapple aromas, little else. Taste brings a grassy bitterness. All about the hops. Nice.
