Big on hoppiness: both in aroma and taste with citrus and floral notes. Also big on mouthfeel. Bitterness is balanced by classic U.S. IPA malt backbone.

Bottle from Favourite Beers Cheltenham. Hazy yellow gold with a thin white head. Aroma has lots of citrus and tropical fruit from the hops. The taste has this too, with a slight sweetness, and bitter finish.

On tap at the Grosvenor, Hanwell, 18/9/2014. Dark amber with a decent, beige, head. Big pineapple notes, resin and grapefruit, with some balancing malts and dry finish with more pine. Very good.

Pours orange/amber with a large head.Nose shows grapefruit, earthy hops, grassy notes, green apple and lovely biscuity malt.Clean hoppy flavours, big pine, grapefruit and grass hops with some faint malt underneath. Finishes with a very aggressive and sharp bitterness.Carbonation seems a bit full on.

Hazy golden beer with a frothy head. Aroma is citrus but sour whereas the flavour has a distinct sweet tang to temper the sourness. The hops could easily have been overpowering but theyโve been well balanced given this a flavour which is surprisingly rounded after the first sniff. Too strong for a session beer of course which is a shame because I think flavour-wise itโd be perfect for me!
