Draught sample at Copenhagen Beer Festival 2017. Clear, amber golden colour with a thin, white head. Fruity aroma with resin, grass, spruce, citrus, caramel malts and tropical fruits. Taste is bitter. Full bodied. Finishes dry and lasting bitter with rich caramel malts and a good hops bite. Old school - very enjoyable.

355ml can, takeout from Tilt, Birmingham. Pours a misty gold, medium white head. Fresh, limey citrus nose. Taste continues, with moderate pine and exotic notes but seems to dry out quite swiftly. Quite chuggable for the strength.

Re-rated from tap @ Kufle i Kapsle, Warsaw. More than less the same profile as previously rating but this fresh version tastes more and better. A well made imp IPA. Score adjusted.
Old rating 7-3-7-3-13:
355 ml can. Unclear yellow/golden body with a dense, medium sized white head. Aroma has citric fruit and malt. Flavor is sweet malt, light caramel, citric fruit, some pine and decent bitterness. OK body and aftertaste of sweet malt and citric bitterness. A bit in the middle of the road decent imp. IPA.

Tap. Pours clear golden. Aroma is tropical fruits and not much else. Body is medium to heavy, low carbonation, sweet and rather fruity, killing the bitterness. Sweet palate too. Quite okay, nothing you would miss though.
