Can at home, picked up online, 01/03/19. Clear golden with a well presented head of white bubbles. Nose is orange peel, light herb, grains, toasted bread, melon, pineapple. Taste comprises orange pith, big flinty minerals, citric tinged straw, toasted grains, trace of pine, Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close peppered with dusty hop bitterness. Really heavy on the minerality ... not the most gracious IPA and certainly the weakest canned offering I've encountered from HH. Miss.

2/3 pint straight from the tank at Howling Hops Tank Room. Patchy white head, clingy lacing, near-clear warm golden body. Ripe orange fruity aromas. Hop orange fruity flavours balanced by subdued malty sweetness. Drying end, mid-bitter. Fine bodied. Pleasant. (Hackney Wick, London 12.01.2019).

Keg at the HH Tank Room - Hackney Wick. Pours well clear gold with a small, foamy white head. Not bad in a throwback kind of way. Has some piney bitterness, semi-ripe citrus, orange, melon, a little grass. Medium bodied with fine to average carbonation. A little piney resin in the finish, cut through by flinty dryness, bitter orange rind. Sound.
