Punk IPA is the beer that kick-started it. This light, golden classic has been subverted with new world hops to create an explosion of flavour. Bursts of caramel and tropical fruit with an all-out riot of grapefruit, pineapple and lychee, precede a spiky bitter finish. This is the beer that started it all - and it’s not done yet...

PUNK - Quintessential Empire with an anarchic twist.

Malts:
Marris Otter Extra Pale.

Hops:
Chinook, Simcoe, Ahtanum, Nelson Sauvin.

12 ounce can from Woodman's Oak Creek, 1/6/20. Clear amber, large foamy tan head, good retention. Aroma of pretentiousness and assholery with notes of plastic, grapefruit, pale malt. Mild aroma. Taste is lime, lemon, melon, pale malt. Thin. Kinda weak and tame. And lame, like the brewery. Meh.

Bottle. Pours clear golden with a medium white head. Aromas of fresh grassy hops,orange peel, slight pineapple, citrus. Taste is quite the same but has alot more grass and hops to it. Very smooth.

Bottle from Morrisons. Quite clear pale blond colour with white frothy head. Aroma is hoppy, but not in your face. Bit of pine and bit of grass. Some fruit too, orange and peach nectar. Also some cereal maltiness in the background. Taste is subtle, touch of sweet maltiness and with a nice subtle but lasting bitter finish. Much prefer this newer version. Very pleased I can buy this for under £2 in Morrisons! Rerate: This newer version is nowhere near as nice. Won't be having this again I think. Very twiggy. Can't get the tropical fruit at all anymore.

This is a tough one. Somebody is grilling chicken nearby and Aromas are mixing with everything else. But, I'm getting fresh dank Citrus hops with some wet and dry grain. Flavors are similar to nose, citrusy sweet accentuated by crisp carbonation with low bitterness. Good body and finish. Nice beer.

Bottle. Deep golden color. Grapefruit, pineapple, citrus and mango in the aroma. Oily hops. Citric hopbitter flavor with grapefruit and pineapple. Thin, even a bit watery palate. Still a nice, firmly hopped ale.
