6oz waiting for a ferry with George. Appearance: clear pale copper with a white head. Aroma: malty, caramel, slight herbal character. Taste: along the same lines, somewhat caramel forward, finishes with hoppy bitterness. Overall: not bad, it lacks elegance, but drinkable.

Bright amber, fluffy beige head. Nose of light malt, vague fruit. Medium body, light malt with medium lasting bitterness and great lacing

On tap at the brewery. Soft hoppiness on the nose. Has a decent antique white creamy head and medium gold body. Flavour is crisp hops with mellow juiciness. Good fullness on the mouth. A nice IPA, alcohol is not too present.

Bottle. Hazy, amber, bubbly head. A bit chewy, some piney hop notes. Balanced, sweet malt notes, again piney bitterness. Nice and old school.

650 ml bottle. Pours a clear dark copper color with light head. Aromas of candied grapefruit. pine and bready malts. Flavors of bitter pine and toasted malts with a fruity backing. Clean and simple, but there are so many others just like this...

On tap at White Sails, pours a clear golden with a small off-white head. Aroma brings out piney hops and very crisp biscuity malt that tends to dominate. Flavour is very citric, with lots of piney and citrus hops, and a thin biscuity malt backbone. Much more citrusy and hop-forward than the nose suggests. Low sweetness and overall malt component, which is fine by me. A little astringent on the finish, but it works well.
