Keg at the Hop Locker, 21/04/17. Murked up orange amber with a decent off White head. Nose is sticky tropicana, mango, light pine, Mandarin, light floral notes, soft bread. Taste comprises caramel, orange marmalade, soft bread dough, pineapple chunks, mango, cantaloupe melon. Medium bodied with bite, fine carbonation, drying close spiked with hop bitterness. Ok DIPA but no starring roll ... old skool feel but a little overly sweet.

Keg at Mason & Company - Hackney Wick. Pours unclear orange-gold with a frothy, pure white head. Interesting snout, a bit floral, with lots of ripe and jammy citrus, pale bread. Heavy sweet flavour with lots of jammy citrus, some Flintstones vitamins, raw alcohol, very low bitterness, white bread. Full bodied, a little chewy, with fine carbonation. Lightly warming finish, somewhat cloying and gooey, with more orange, marmalade, booze, pale bread. I am not a huge fan of this one.

Keg at Hop Locker. It pours murky amber with a medium white head. The aroma is rich, stinky, resin, pine, urine, stewed fruits, orange, nectarine, peach and brioche with marmalade. The taste is bitter - sweet, rich, piney, resin, stewed orange, peach, nectarine, pineapple, marmalade, boozy boost, bit of grassy / weed in the background. Finish is chewy and bitter - sweet. A bit heavy and a touch sweet perhaps, but enjoyable nonetheless.
