Yeah I don’t know about this one. They’re marketing the hell out of it over here on the EC and I’ve seen it in lots of taps. But anyway I didn’t know what it was supposed to be. Hops predominated even though they didn’t, except for when they did.

Bottle at Brewdog, Birmingham, sampled April 2017. Pours light hazy, dark gold/amber with a cream head. Aroma: malty & hoppy with honey hints. Taste: robust, complex malty & hoppy with notes of orange, coriander. Warming, bittersweet finish. Medium body with frothy carbonation. Decent.

On tap. Pours a slightly hazy medium orange with a small, creamy, short lived, off-white head that leaves spotty lacing. Sweet aroma of bready malt, caramel, orange, grapefruit, pineapple, coriander and funky yeast. Sweet flavour of pale malt, caramel, orange, grapefruit, peach, pineapple, coriander, pepper and earthy yeast with a dry, bitter grass finish. Medium body with an oily texture and soft carbonation. A solid hybrid.

Tight, fluffy near white head stayed well on a clear golden, still body. Tropical fruit & orange aroma. Medium body, sharp, tingly & clean on the back. Dry on the aft. Bitter citrus, pine, tropical fruits, pith, mango, orange & the Belgian yeast is definitely knocking about.
