ABV: 6.5% IBU: 50 Ticks: 198
A powerful and hoppy IPA that uses a blend of American hops, giving the beer a fresh citrus and grapefruit punch. Contains barley malt.

Taste: Initially pink grapefruit juice will wash over your tongue, with a zing of lively carbonation that follows you all the way down. Lime zest and even a hint of peppercorn can be found if left on the tongue, before the massive mango kick knocks through your teeth.

33cl bottle from Beer52.com. A bright amber pour with a loose cream head; aroma of grapefruit and caramel malts; somewhat oily in the mouth with a birch wood bitterness to start, and then a sweet malty body with some grapefruit; and a shortlived grapefruit finish. Good, but typical of modern IPAs.

Bottle. Pours a clear golden color with a medium white head. A nice fruity resin nose. The flavor is big herbal hops, bitter, very malty and balanced. Lovely label.

330 ml bottle. Pours a brownish amber with moderate head. Aromas of lime peel, tea, and biscuity malts. Flavors follow same. Dull and not as hoppy as expected. Maybe getting old though best before is Aug 17.
