This rich, complex beer is brewed with British Fuggles and Goldings hops and has all the earthy, peppery notes of a classic IPA. The hoppy notes of this beer work wonderfully with Indian spices, so it's great with curries.

Pours a orange-ish brown, with a thin and unimpressive tan head. Smells of brown sugar caramel and pine resin. The taste is a bit unbalanced - sweet malty caramel and some smooth pine resin at first, followed by a herbal, almost medicinal, bitterness.

330ml bottle from my local M&S store: poured into an Arrogant Bastard badged US pint sleeve at home on 27th Nov 2015. Nice clear amber body, the head a huge lightly tanned foam blanket that hung around. Hops rule the nose and taste, slightly bitter with a malty underbelly to take away any really strong hop flavouring or true ’lip smacking bitterness’. I prefer this sort of style to the new wave US West Coast IPA hop monsters. UK hops rule OK!
