Like Marty McFly stepping into the Delorean, this IPA takes you straight back to the 80s. Dank, Bitter, Delicious!

375ml can. Slightly hazy gold, small white head, decent retention. Aroma is pine, resin, malts and citrus. Taste is pine resin, grapefruit, citrus, biscuit malts and a strong bitterness but it doesn't hang around and isn't astringent. Average in body and carbonation which is fine. Its a good solid IPA but a little unmemorable. It has a relatively clean taste and only a hint of dank hops.

375ml can from Beer52. Drank at home on 31st Jan 2021. Misty golden body, white topping. Not as Dank or Bitter as the name suggests, but I suppose calling it 'Dull & Boring' wouldn't be a selling point!

Rocky white head left a froth on a translucent amber coloured body. Minimal malt aroma. Medium bodied, smooth with a lively back & cloying aft. Bitter, pine, hoppy, grapefruit & pithy tastes with a malt backbone & grapefruit finish. Standard West Coast

Panda at home, thanks to SHIG, 14/01/21. Almost clear orange with a decent off white head. Nose is grass, sweet malts, bitter tropical fruit shreds, light perfumed effect. Taste comprises orange peel, grass, melon, pineapple, light weed. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close splashed with modest lightly dankened hop bitterness. Ok stuff .... no great for sure.

Can. Clear golden amber with a white head that's soon a coat. Modest aroma of weed and citrus, some berries and biscuit. Light bodied. The citrus and berries ooze out of the biscuity malt in a very clear "hops in the kettle" manner. There's a bit of a piney edge as the bitterness grips. This is supposed to be a throwback and it's fine - but I still drink LCPA and SN Torpedo. --- Beer merged from original tick of Dank & Bitter on 17 Jun 2019 at 12:36 - Score: Appearance - 6 | Aroma - 7 | Flavor - 7 | Texture - 6 | Overall - 8.
