500ml bottle. Cloudy orangey dark golden colour with huge, frothy, half-way lasting, minimally lacing, off-white head. Bitter, fruity hop aroma, notes of grapefruit, passion fruit, additionally hints of red and dark berries and their parings with a tannic touch. Taste is bitter hoppy, strawy, grainy, slightly tannic, "chlorophyllic".

Half pint, cask, tap takeover at Cask Pub & Kitchen, Pimlico. White head recedes to a thin layer. Hazy apricot coloured body. Hop driven aroma containing notes of pineapple and orange. Zesty mid-sweet taste profile of fruity hops, juicy malts and spices leading to a dry bitter ending. Medium bodied. Pleasant to drink (London 12.08.2013).

Bottle at home. Murky amber body with a massive white head. Excellent lacing. Muted aroma of lychee, lime, pear and yeast. Flavour is similar - definitely pear, but also herbal flavours. Thin to medium body with an oily texture. Soft carbonation fizz. A decent IPA, just not the most interesting.

50cl bottle thanks to allmyvinyl. Appearance - cloudy amber orange with a decent head. Nose - sweet floral nose. Taste - toffee and spiced biscuits. Palate - medium bodied with a biscuity texture and a decent. Overall - not what it said on the tin. But good enough.

500ml bottle shared with Ashton McCobb. Murky pour again, although not as lively as the previous beer of theirs we tried. Very subtle nose, light spice, no citrus or pine as expected. Basically, another bitter. Hides the strength, in that it tastes like many other, weaker beers. Not bad, but atypical.

Cask at Ealing beer festival 2013, London. An orange/amber coloured pour with a medium off white head on top. Orange, tropical fruit aroma. Tastes hoppy, orange, bitter, grapefruit. A little unbalanced for my liking.
