Can. Hazy orange gold beer, tidy pale cream colour head. Smooth and semi dry palate, decent fine carbonation. Soft malts bring a mild creamy sweetness. There is an English twang from the English hops. Would be nice to know what they are but Cloudwater don't think we need to know. There is good English hop fruits as well. Soft orange peel, spice, some light bramble fruits. Whisper of apricot and pear. All comes together very well into a smooth finish. Reckon there is Brambling Cross in here and possibly Jester. Nice English IPA but as a hop geek, Cloudwater do frustrate me with their frequent lack of hop data.

Can at home from CW online. Pours hazy Amber with a thin off white head that fades. Aroma is grapefruit, malt, resinous hop, some ripe stone fruit. Taste is a big juicy ripe stone fruit hit, some bitter grapefruit. Solid malt backbone there and resinous hop leave a dry, orange bitter finish. Super smooth. Solid.
