On tap at St. Augustine's, pours a hazy golden with a small beige head. Aroma brings out light piney hops, with some tropical fruiting, and crisp biscuity malt. Flavour is along the same lines, with piney hops, biscuity malt and light stone fruits. Fruity and piney. A nice PNW IPA - we need more of these.

Bright amber with a medium head. Aroma of subtropical hops, with moderate bitterness, berryish and slightly weedy hops. Yeah, not different.

Draught at the brewery
Clear golden colour. Resiny hops, some dank character, mild biscuity malt; all good for a solid and clean West Coast IPA with robust bitterness, although has some pithy bitterness in the finish.
Very good.
