ABV: 5.5% IBU: - Ticks: 7
A beer that fuses the dry bitterness of American west coast pale ale with the full-bodied mouthfeel of the New England variety. Heavily dry-hopped with Citra and Centennial Hops, this gloriously golden beer packs a zesty, peachy punch.

Can at home, from Waitrose online, 09/01/21 watching Stoke vs Citeh in the 3rd round. Moderately hazed golden orange with a decent lasting white cap. Nose is orange zest, grass, toasted malts, melon, lemon tinged straw. Taste comprises melon, grassy bite, orange pith, light grapefruit, toasted malts. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close splashed with balanced juicy hop bitterness. Ok easy drinking IPA.

Can from Waitrose, West Byfleet. Aroma has pine, resin, low key fruits and bready malts. Copper gold. A vague haze. Frothy white head. Light-medium bitter with a sour edge. Pine. A hint of stone fruit and a resinous touch. Malty strands. Medium bodied. Slick. Fizzy carbonation. Dry. Pretty bland. It's drinkable. Inoffensive. But so muted. It may once have been juicy and fresh but not any more.
