Hazy light amber. Aroma is light citrus/pine hops. Assertive bitterness with a little crackery malts. Decent if thin pale.

Has a nice bright blue bottle cap. That’s worth something, isn’t it? Very reliable appearance otherwise with a brownish body lacking carbonation and decent head that sticks around. Good sweet hops on the nose, appetizing, simple. Nice IPA flavour with some citrus notes and a dry finish with some grain undertones. This is a solid, well-made IPA: not a standout, nor especially unique, but very good.

Bottle - Tropical fruit, especially mango and grapefruit. Copper and clear with a white foamy head. Unfortunately the taste lets this beer down. Thin, bitter, resinous and just not that great. If they can match the aroma to the taste this would be a slam dunk. Draft - Nose is still great, but on tap at the brewpub the body and flavors are much better. A bit of fresh pine and some of the tropical fruit comes through. Mandarin and orange peel in the bitter finish. Increased the score based on the more recent draft.

On tap at St. Augustine's, pours an opaque cloudy orange with a small beige head. Aroma is almost nonexistent, with subtle notes of piney ad earthy hops - can't detect anything else. Flavour is similarly weak, with fruity, citrusy hops, some off-flavours that suggest a shitty recipe, and some dry caramel malt in the background. Quite a harsh astringency on the finish. Not very good.

650 ml bottle. Pours a clear orange/brown with very light head. Aromas of oranges and malt. Flavors of pine, brown sugar, and toasted malts. A little light but quite refreshing.

2014-06-27, draught at the brewpub, 7-4-7-4-15=37
Mild aroma of cereals, malt, hops. Dry caramel flavor, good resiny hops, lingering fruitiness.
Pleasant.

Hazy light amber color. Very nice aroma, quite impressive; at first, it’s very fruity, with apricot, peach, notes of tropical fruits; then it shows a nice biscuity malt; finally, some delicate lemony vibrations, lemon cookies too.
Unfortunately the flavor doesn’t stand up; the carbonation is low, which is a positive thing usually; the body is quite weak, and the mouthfeel dry; there is some flavor of toffee, but without excitement; decent bitterness level, the hopping is quite resiny and with some lemony side too.
Pleasant, original; I would like to drink a version with just some more power, maybe next time.

Tap @ brewpub. Colorful orange appearance with a cream colored head. A touch spicy, orange, piney, mild to moderate hoppy aroma. Mild to moderate bitterness. Light citrusy, earthy flavor. Earthy hoppy aftertaste.
