They say you should never meet your heroes... but who cares? Green Cheek are one of the best in the business so we jumped at the chance to brew a California IPA with them. This style of IPA is crisp, clean and refreshing, with pilsner malt making up most of the base. Our good friends Mosaic, Citra, Simcoe and Sabro combine to bring the magic.

A touch of cloudiness on this orange beer. Small head that had difficulty forming. Citrus fruits, tropical sweetness, candied fruits, some resin. Medium bodied. Finish has more resin and candied fruits. Lightly bitter. Fine but slightly underwhelming.

Can from Morrisons. Hazy golden body with a thin white head. No visible carbonation. Faint lacing. Aroma of pineapple and orange. Flavour of peach and grapefruit. Medium body with a slick texture. Soft fizz. An excellent supermarket IPA offering.

Can. Morrison’s. Very light haze on an orange gold. Slim lasting semi lacing white foam. Nose has sticky malts. Pineapple syrup. Sappy pine. Ripened orange. Taste has some sweetness first off with a good hit of sappy ripe citrus bitterness. Definitely feels it’s ABV, but it’s steady away easy drinking regardless. Lingering bitter finish. Good gear especially at the 4-4-3 price point.

Siren Cans Trio At Home Beer#3 of 3. A golden coloured brew with depth to finish off the evening. There's a little bit of the beer's strength to its taste, but it's hoppy enough with light pine and berry-style fruit secondary - perhaps at its most stated in aroma. This one is in and out of flavour for me, so hard to put a finger on how to rate some of its characteristics.

440ml can from ASDA in Watford, Herts. A golden/orange coloured pour with a medium white head on top that doesn't last too long. Hoppy, citrus, orange, mango, pine, tropical fruit aroma and taste. This was a very drinkable IPA indeed, clean and slightly sweet tasting. Will certainly purchase some more.

Great stuff, old-school West Coast gear, some ripening citrus, sun-kissed pale mats, mild piney bitterness, tangerine, grapefruit. Great balance. Soft resin to finish. Sound.

On tap at The Rusty Bucket, Eltham. Nice nose of orange marmalade, apricot jam, peach, pine. Rich taste of the above. Piney, orangey mouthfeel which segues into a long & satisfying finish.
