Full Guard is a double IPA with a smooth full body. That carries a beautiful complex hop arrangement and estery yeast character that gives notes of tropical and citrus fruits.

Can at home, 6th September 18. Pours a clear orange. Aroma is orange, citrus, floral. Taste is sweet, orange, some bitterness, but not enough, candied fruit. It's a good drink, but a little too sweet.

Gcan shared in London - cheers Dave. Pours mostly clear yellow-gold with a frothy, white head. Pretty solid, rich, lots of juicy citrus fruits, orange and tangerine, melon, mild oily pine. Medium to full bodied, lightly chewy, with fine carbonation. Warming finish, lightly resinous, more juicy citrus character. Good stuff.

Can. Light haze on this gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Palate is smooth and light, decent fine carbonation. Sweet malts, little light cream. Sweet hoppy fruits. Mild hop spice underneath and a little citric peel.. Dominant flavour is sweet tangerine and orange. Touch of peach.Light semi dry finish. Curiously sweet.

Keg at HL3. It pours clear orangey with a massive white head. The aroma is sweet, sticky, resinous, orangey fruits, peach and mango. The taste is bitter - sweet, sticky, oily, fruit cocktail, peachy, apricot, tinned mango, sugary, alcohol kick, touch of spice and Cointrea with a sweet, boozy finish. Medium+ body and moderate, foamy carbonation. Quite sweet overall, maybe overly so. Not bad overall.
