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 hazy, fiery orange amber, topped with medium sized offwhite head, not too lasting. Malty nose with lots of biscuits, slight soy sauce and a bit of dry fruits. Malty start with mild sweetness, biscuits and caramel. Moderate bitterness, grassy and herbal. Quite lasting aftertaste. Sharp and a bit medicinal. English style IPA, but not the nicest.

Strong bitter and herbal notes, unbalanced and almost like something’s off. Not my thing.

Bottle at home from Waitrose. A good pour and an aroma of bitter hops, that stampeded across the taste buds on the first sip. This was all about the bitterness in what was a true to form English IPA. And I loved it! The taste buds were jangling and the well balanced malt resulted in a perfect mouth feel.

50cl bottle from Selver, Tallinn. Pours deep golden to amber with a modest, but lasting, white head. Fruity and floral with solid malty notes, caramel and hints of pine, herbs and toffee. Medium sweet with medium flavour intensity and ditto bitterness. Haven't had this one for a long time, but it's quite okay.

50 cl. bottle @ home, gift from my family. Clear amber with a very thin white head. Grainy earthy aroma with some caramel and faint hops. Bitter taste. Almost a lager in aroma and mouthfeel or maybe a bitter. Even for an English IPA it’s really low on hops. Not bad though,nicely balanced.

500ml bottle. Clear golden amber colour with a minimal head dissipating quickly. Aroma: very sweet caramel malt, toffee, fruit. Taste: sweetish caramel malt, fruit, toffee, and surprisingly bitter finish given the sweetness of the malts.Thin-medium body, soft carbonation. Not bad at all.
