Sticky citrus and a bit of peel. Clear orange with a decent white head. Sticky citrus and a bit bland otherwise. Heat on the throat.

Bottle from High Point, Vancouver
Amber colour, clean. The aroma is lightly grainy, the flavour too, husky, with some vegetable bitterness, herbaceous; strong bitterness.
It's a decent beer, and it's very clean, but it's an old style, and the hop is not bright at all.

650ml bottle at Alex's shared with Ash. Appearance: almost clear pale copper with a tan head Aroma: piney, a bit herbal and floral Taste: quite bitter, but it's along the same lines Overall: good old school stuff, but it's too bitter by current standards

Firstly, no evidence to me of strawberry melon or lime,no matter what the bottle suggests. just a good balanced solid Imperial IPA. Quite bitter with a big malt back bone, softly carbonated
