You’ll be caught in the headlights by the award winning balance of malt sweetness, subtle roasted character and flavours of pine and orange. This dry hopped amber ale has a healthy dose of hops to provide citrus and tropical fruit aromas.

473ml can. Pours a slightly hazy amber copper with a medium, foamy, long lasting, beige head that leaves curtains of lace. Aroma of toasted bready malt, caramel, orange, floral and piney hops. Sweet flavour of toasted biscuity malt, toffee, grapefruit, floral and pine resin in a dry, bitter finish. Light to medium body with an oily texture and average to soft carbonation. Well balanced and tasty.

Smells deeply of hops and resin, has a crisp yet gooey character. There's good creamy foam and some clear dark gold body. Flavour is bright pine with good malt working with it. Nice crispness. This is very nice, good balance, nice flavour.

On tap at Luppolo, pours a hazy copper bronze with a small beige head. Aroma brings out caramely bready malt and a nice resinous hop character. Flavour is solidly balanced between the resinous hops and caramely malt, being both strong on the malty and not too timid on the hops. Good balance and certainly above average for this style.

Draught at the brewery
Dark amber colour to brown with compact head. Lean body, some caramel, a bit too earthy for my liking.
