Golden Double IPA, in pure American style with a dry finish that gives it a dangerous drinkability. The unscrupulous use of classic and latest generation hops give strong aromas of blood orange, citrus and candied fruit.

Bottle. Hop Hideout, Sheffield. Murky gold. No head. No sparkle. Oh dear. Nose has tropical fruit. Some strawberry. Taste is sweet, quickly turning oily bitter. Palate is dull, and lifeless. Finishes long bitter. Elements of a great beer, here, but this is not quite right.

Bottle sampled @ De Molen 2nd Tuesday tasting. Thick creamy white head. Best before date today. Hazy golden blond pour. Nice bitterness but it’s clear that it’s close to the best before date as it wasn’t as bitter as I was expecting. Stil very nice

Sampled from bottle @ De Molen 2nd Tuesday Tasting. Slightly unclear orange color, medium to full sized a bit soapy off-white head that lasts for a decent while. Aroma is lightly malts, orangepeel, some hops. Taste lightly malts, hops, orangepeel, lightly floral, decently bitter. A bit thin bodied, average carbonation. Not a DIPA imo.
