UPPER CASE has a delicate, dry pilsner malt character with a smooth, soft, doughy mouthfeel from the raw wheat, oily hop resin which all serves as a canvas for this twice dry hopped 9% double IPA. Overipe mango, pineapple and passion fruit aromas leap out as the beer is poured. The impression of tropical fruit also takes the lead in the flavor which is layered further by white wine, pine resin and grapefruit zest. Hopped primarily with Mosaic with supporting roles played by Galaxy, Citra and Columbus.

Growler shared@CBC Clerkenwell, London (03/06/2015) - golden orange pour with a white head. Aroma and taste is a medley of sweet juicy tropical and citrus fruits, prominent grapefruit, tangerine, citrus peel, piny, with good sweet malty backbone, light caramel sweetness, resinous hoppy towards the finish. Beautiful.

Growler thanks to Leighton! It pours clear golden-orange with a small white head. The nose is soft, juicy, juicy fruit chewing gum, passion fruit, peachy, mango, candied peel, pissy hops and some bread. The taste is crisp, bitter, juicy, minerals, straw, passion fruit, mango, peach, apricot, grassy/dank aspect and light alcohol boost with a dry finish. Medium body and moderate carbonation. Juicy and damn crushable. A hell of a beverage.

Growler shared in London. Pours lightly hazy gold with a frothy white head. So, so dank in the nose, loads of piss, pith, peach, apricot, tangerine. Medium sweet flavor with juicy citrus, pale bread, mango, peach, nectarine. Medium to full bodied with fine carbonation. Wonderful balance on the finish, loads of juicy citrus fruits, pineapple, peach, tangerine. Outrageously juicy. Gorgeous. One of the best DIPAs Iβve ever had.

750mL bottle, pours a hazy golden blonde with a small white head. Nose is super dank, with truckloads of tangy dank hops - not a whole lot else. Dank and hoppy as hell. Flavour matches accordingly, with shitloads of dank tangy hops primarily from the citra, with light tropical fruits and just enough dry biscuity malt to back. Phenomenally balanced - dry and hoppy and dank as hell. Master work.

Flavor is light to light moderate sweet and over moderate bitter. Light medium bodied with soft carbonation. Lovely, but would prefer a lower ABV
