wo malts, two wheat malts, two bittering hops, two aroma hops and two yeasts. Double of everything and a doubled up name to boot! A big league IBU rounded off to perfection with a deep malt backbone. More than just hops, this one bursts with sweet caramel and juicy malty depths for a mouthwatering and balanced finish.

Can from Mark. I can see why the ratings are all over the place for this beer. Starts off like a hazy, then adds a healthy dose of caramel malts. Sweet, part time fruity, part times malty. Smooth for a DIPA.

330ml can from Copper Bar, Swansea. Orangey amber colour, white foam head and mellow hop aroma. Taste is malt caramel with some astringent woody hop bitterness. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, dry tangy bitter finish. OK.

At a tasting, small stable bubbly head, hazy darkish orange color, aroma of minerals, vegetables and cardboard, grainy, plastic flavor with a green and a bit harsh bitterness. Not too good.

Copper colour with quick fading head. Aroma and flavour have a lot of caramel malts and bittersweet syrupy resinous sap.

Can from Ales by Mail. Nice to drink something clear for a change! Pours clear golden with a thin white head. Aromas of light pine and caramel. Taste is light bitter. Needs mair hops. Not a bad beer overall though.
