This full-bodied India Pale Ale is loaded with fresh hops for a powerful blend of citrus, pine and fruit aromas. The firm malt backbone works well with the bold hop finish that everyone expects from an IPA.

Bottle from the Great Beer Bar, Petaling Jaya, Malaysia. Poured a clear golden colour with a big frothy white head. The aroma is biscuit malt, light fruit, light woody hop. The flavour is moderate to strong bitter with a malt, big dry woody hop bitter palate and a long bitter finish. Medium bodied with average carbonation. Very bitter and a little one dimensional.

Can @ home shared with Inoven and TomHendriksen. Clear orange golden color, medium to full sized white to off-white head that lasts for a decent while and leaves fair lacing. Aroma is malts, huge hops, piney spruce. Tastes about the same: malts, hops, pine, spruce, slightly tropical fruit hoppy and nicely bitter. Medium body and carbonation. Nice!

Can 355ml (Beer Republic, BB 11/22/17)
Clear dark amber colour, small steady off-white head. A bit bready aroma with some pine and caramalt. Medium-bodied. Piney hoppyness with some fruits andresin. Crystal malty backbone. Decent bitterness but aroma has lost its charm.
