An orange coloured IPA with nice sweet aromas from the Munich malt that combines well with a mix of juicy aromas coming from a mix of American Australian and New Zealand hops. The malts and hoppy flavours are pronounced but well balanced like in the best American Pale Ales or the freshest of NZ IPAs. What makes it special? The Pacific Ocean is quite a big puddle; there is a circular stream that connects the North American West Coast Japan Australia and North Eastern Russia. Not many of us know that this huge whirlpool is creating a big plastic garbage island in the middle of it called The Great Pacific Trash Patch. We don't like it. So we decided to change trash with nice hops like Stella Comet and Cascade.

Cask-conditioned at the Beer Emporium, Bristol 24/9/2015. Amber in colour, with a slight, off-white, head. floral hops, a touch of caramel, some citrus fruits and a lengthy bitter finish. Good.

Craft Tottenham Court Road. Cask. Clear gold beer, small white head. Palate is smooth and semi dry, decent fine carbonation. Smooth pale malts, modest sweetness. Hops are mild orange with touches of floralness and lime. A light apple vibe but the beer doesn’t feel green. Light semi dry finish. A grower this one, nice enough.

Cask at The Rate Bar. It pours clear golden with a small white head. The nose is fresh, pine needles, peach varnish, dough, leather and grass. The taste is bitter, piney, oily hop, peppery spice, varnish, brown bread, light hop astringency and grass with a dry finish. Medium body and soft carbonation. Rather quaffable. Decent drop.
