(Can) Pours clear amber with decent white head. Lovely aroma of pine and pineapple with peppery hints. Medium body with good fine carbonation. Taste starts with tangy fruitiness and peppery spice. There’s some pleasant caramel malt following and then the hop bitterness builds nicely into a long bitter finish. Very nice

Can sample at a tasting at Tom L's place. Thanks Odi. Hazy golden, white head. Rather stale hops, some sweetish malt, bitter finish.

375ml can into shaker. Hazy golden orange beer with thick creamy white head. Medium carbonation. Patchy lacing. Aromas of pineapple, lemon, pine. Good body, sticky viscous texture. Lightly bitter taste is followed by juicy fruit salad then a drying bitterness which encourages more sipping. Superb IPA, a real pleasure to drink.

Can. Amber with an inch of white head that lasts well. Aroma of tropical fruit cup, and peach, some toffee and biscuit. Sweet with tinned fruit, biscuit, muddled citrus, some herbal notes. Fairly bitter finish. Too "fruit punch" for my taste.
