Can. 7.0% Almost clear amber gold beer, good cream colour head. Smooth palate, modest fine carbonation. Malts have a little creamy sweetness and a big dollop of unsweet caramel and a touch of dark toffee. Orange peel bitterness, some marmalade and smooth pine. Touch of hop spice on the finish which leaves a long bitter linger. Quite serviceable for what it is. If I was in a pub that only served shit beers and this was available I would be happy. If I was in a craft beer bar, this would be way down the list.

Can. A hazy amber beer with a lazing yellowish head. The aroma has notes of hops, citrus fruits, malt, and caramel. The flavor is sweet with notes of hops, citrus fruits, malt, and caramel, leading to a bitter finish.

Decent yellow gold body with modest white head, semi sweet hops on the nose leaning toward rotting cabbage. Flavour is fresh orange and peaches. Oily finish. Not bad, nor great, alcohol is well hidden and it's a reasonably drinkable double IPA.
