This ale is traditionally highly hopped and robust to survive the long voyage to the Indian sub-continent. The result is a full-bodied Pale Ale with a zesty character. Dark golden in colour, pleasing toffee aromas, and distinctive floral citrus flavours.

Pours a beautiful, perfectly transparent light amber/dark orange, with a couple of fingers of meshed white head. Good enough retention and nice lacing. Quite weak but still clean/perceptible enough aroma: a biscuity and slightly toffeeish malty base, followed by fruity notes of mainly orange (ripe/jam-like) and a hint of floral hoppiness. Taste notes follow the aroma, now with good enough intensity and a bit more floral hoppiness popping out. Medium sweet, medium to high bitter, with a balanced mouth and a good punch of dry bitterness in finish/aftertaste, with the slightest earthy hint. Light to medium bodied, average carbonation, goes down pretty easy and decently lively. A nowadays quite rare example of a classic english ipa, and a well made one.

Bottle online from Beers Of Europe. Pours a clear golden/amber colour with a thinnish white head. Aromas of biscuits, caramel and light notes of citrus and peppery spice. Taste has more biscuits and caramel with a lot more peppery spice and a big hoppy citrus rind bitterness on a lingering dry finish . Full body, fairly low carbonation and smooth slightly oily mouthfeel. Nice punchy English IPA.

bottiglia 50 cl, schiuma bianco sporco fine media persistenza, colore ambrato velato, al naso malto caramello fruita matura agrumi note floreali, in bocca pompelmo malto caramello, corpo rotondo, carbonazione piatta, oily, lieve astringente, amaro accentuato, dolce nel finale. Diversa dalla maggior parte delle IPA. Un po' troppo piatta e poca aromatica ma comunque buona.. c. Birraland.it 05.06.22
