A delicious, refreshing red ale. It brings together a range of 6 specialty malts and New World hops. This creates a characterful ale with a toffee, caramel and dark fruit palate, finishing with soft piney, resinous hop notes.

Dark brown color, small steady brownish head. Citrus, caramel, pine, resin, fruity hoppyness in the nose. Medium-bodied. Toasted maltyness, some dark fruits, fruity, resiny-citrusy hops. Someone could call this black IPA. Another tasty from Buxton.

Bottle from Hop Hideout, Sheffield. Lightly hazy, reddy amber. Off white, tight, lasting head. Morello cherry jam. Ripe, black cherry. Grapefruit peeking through. Hint of spiciness. Taste is fleeting, toffee sweetness on the lips. Then light dry. Then fairly lengthy bitterness. Medium body,with some oiliness. Very nice.

(Draught at Man in the Moon, Stockholm, 20 Feb 2014) Reddish amber colour with frothy, beige head. Malty, fruity nose with resin, grapefruit, citrus peel, rye bread and caramel. Malty, hoppy taste with notes of grapefruit, resin, rye bread, citrus and a generous citric, grapefruity bitterness in a fairly dry finish. Medium body, with just a touch of sweetness. Tasty and well made with a generous hop profile. Very nice.

Keg at The Fox, Hackney on 11 January 2014. Poured a cloudy red colour with a thin white head and good lacing. Aroma of grassy hops, redcurrents and caramel. Malty flavour with some brown sugar and dry grain. Finish was cereal, hop resin and slightly astringent bitter grass.

(Keg at Black Door, 20131102) The beer poured dark brown and clear. Its head was small and almost white. Aroma had fresh grass, malts and sweetness. Palate was medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were fruitiness, fresh grass, malts and bitterness. Aftertaste was hoppy and bitter. A tasty brew with US twist.

50 cl bottle @ Cosmic Comic Cafe, BBE 11/2013
Aroma is sweetish with lots of resin, exotic fruits, some caramel, biscuits and hints of hay. Flavour is sweet with pine needles, resin, some fruity notes, caramel and some harsh woody and malty notes. Smooth palate is rather low on CO2. Too stuffy and too much pine here. Not bad still.
