Ticks: 18

Nuclear Hophead stands out for its balance between malt and hops. Easy to drink, it already shows its American hop profile on the nose: tropical fruit, grapefruit and pine. In the mouth it stands out for its firm and resinous bitterness, but not dominant, following the perception found on the nose, with a resinous and dry, but light final nuance. An American-style IPA.

Orange color with an off-white head, very creamy and with good retention. Aroma has notes of fresh hops, slightly citrus and light tangerine. Flavor is moderate bittery with a medium latiness. Bittery and dry final.

330 ml. bottle sampled @ “Exclusive S&G Tasting: Special guest 77ships”. Thanks to Mathieu87 & PriorL. Dark orange, little head. Thick orange peel, bitter, some sugar, light herbs, floral, light yeasty body. Decent enough.

Bottle consumed at Cropredy ’Fairports Annual Reunion’ Festival, Cropredy, Oxon, Friday 8th August 2014 Pours hazy amber with a persistent though not too pushy buzzing bitterness, quite a steady bittersweetness throughout. Soft in mouth a sweet lemony citrus seam runs through. I quite liked this. A7 A3 T7 P4 Ov14 3.5

Bottle. Tropical hop aroma Murky copper, offwhite head Perfumed, resiny, pine, peach mango Metallic dry bitterhop covers the palate, peach marmelade aftertaste Medium light sticky body Fairly unbalanced, not a big fan of hop bombs anymore.
