330 ml bottle conditioned. L040, from Aberdeen Country Fair. ABV is 6.2%. Deep golden to orange colour, slightly hazy. Large to moderate white head. Nice fruity aroma of Amarillo hops. Fruity flavour too, well hopped throughout, decent bitterness.

Bottle from the Standing Order. Appearance - golden amber with a nice fluffy head. Nose - lemon curd and general sweet lemon notes. Taste - more sweet lemon notes. Palate - close to medium bodied with a creamy texture and a finishthat could be fresher. Overall - quite sweet and sickly for the style. Doesn’t do it for me.

Mild gusher. Bright clear gold beer, tidy pale cream colour head. Palate is soft with modest carbonation. Milky sweet malts. Orange peel hops. Some floral bitterness. More milky sweetness on the soft finish. Taste like someone poured Carnation in my beer!

330ml bottle from Growler Beers UK. Orangey golden colour with a creamy white foam head leaving lacing. Aroma of grain and mellow hop. Taste is malt caramel, some grain, earthy, tangy fruity, with woody citrus hop bitterness. Smoothish mouthfeel, medium bodied, soft carbonation, dry peppery bitter finish. Quite OK.

Bottle: Deep golden, hazy, small persistent off-white head; spicy orangey to cough-syrupy nose, some medical hops in the second row; quite light bodied, quite soft; mild to moderate sweet-bitter flavour; lingering caramelly-hoppy and fruity finish. Nice, but not great…

Single hop IPA from a progressive Scottish brewery, with irregular, milky, snow white head only retaining well around the edges, and a misty light orange blonde colour with decent fizz, turning a murky ochre orange with deposit. Aroma has the typical ’orangeness’ of Amarillo without smelling very sweet, impressions of tangerine, mango, sundried tomatoes, chamomille and other fragrant field flowers, cigarette tobacco, curry spices, green olives, old cumin cheese, whisky and dill seed. Clean, crisp, subduedly sweet onset of dried fruits, unripe peach and pineapple, supple, soft mouthfeel with rather low carbo, spicy hops showing up early but fortunately not becoming too salty, and spreading over a restrainedly sweet, lightly nutty and toasted malt backbone towards a long-lasting bitter finish, both deeply bittering in the throat in an earthy manner and providing retronasal spiciness and notably subtle ’citrusness’; juicy toasted malts accompany the persisting spicy hops. I expected a more emphatically orange-like aroma, but this is surely a pleasant surprise, with an almost ’Asian’ spiciness to it - I assume this aptly illustrates the cliché pairing of IPA with Indian food. Not the most delicious IPA I had, but quite distinctive in its aroma and in all, nicely done.
