Epic by name, epic by nature, this Farmhouse Ale is a transcontinental fusion of Belgium’s eclectic beer culture and the feisty hops of North America brought to life with the aid of West Country artisanal brewing wizardry and judicious use of the US-grown Sorachi Ace hop.

Bottle from a corner shop. Appearance - golden with a nice fluffy head. Nose - yeast and citrus, either lemon or pineapple. Taste - yoghurt and citrus which culminates in a grated coconut thing. Palate - light to medium bodied with a creamy yet tangy texture and a long dry tangy finish. Overall - decent rather than epic.

Bottle from Cocktails, Littleborough. Slightly hazy yellow with a small bubbly head. Has a very citrus hoppy character with lemon very evident in its nose, and also in its taste. There’s not a huge bitterness though despite its very obvious flavours.

Bottle @ home. Clear pale orange color, medium sized off-white head. Aroma has more citrussy hops than I would have expected beforehand. Taste also has quite an up front citrus hop flavor, orangepeel, lightly fruitpeel bitter. Decent body and carbonation.

330ml bottle. Barely clear, yellow-ish deep golden colour with huge, frothy, half-way asting, minimally lacing, white head. Fruity hoppy, yeasty spicy, air freshener aroma, sweet-ish hints of peach, some citrus. Taste is tangy with sweet-ish biscuity malty basis, a touch of sugar powder, peppery yeasty spiciness, bitter hints of orange zest.
