Il gusto al naso viene catturato dal luppolo. L'intensità olfattiva è normale e la continuità olfattiva è sufficiente. Il manto superiore è caratterizzato da una schiuma destinata a vita breve. La grandezza delle bollicine è a grana medio-fine. La carbonazione è bassa. Il liquido appare cristallino. La frizzantezza si presenta sotto forma di poche bollicine fini. Il colore è giallo ambrato. Il corpo è pieno. L'amaro è deciso. L'intensità gustativa è elevata. La costanza gustativa è sufficiente. Le sensazioni boccali che permangono sono luppolate. Il finale è amarognolo. Il retrogusto è intenso. L'aroma in bocca porta note di miele, frutta secca, luppolo, resina, pino, agrumi e pompelmo.

Bottle at Frankie and Bennies, Camberley. I was going to go for Byron or 7Bone in terms of beer options but was outvoted. Grass and citrus aroma. Pretty hoppy. Copper gold. Bubbly white head soon fades away. Medium bitter. Citrus but not overly refreshing or juicy. A quinine edge. Light bodied. Slick. Fizzy carbonation. Relatively abrupt finish. Not the most mind blowing IPA but for one that's available in most supermarkets it's not too bad and is hoppy enough.

Clear amber pour, bit of white foam there. Caramelly-hoppy nose, quite a lot of malt sweetness providing the undertone for this beer, decorated with some hop resins. Not too fragrant nor complex but still clean and solid IPA character. Taste has more of that caramel as a base, covered with resiny and piney hops. Not too well balanced, feels a bit rough. Overall a decent table IPA, old school.

330ml bottle into pint glass. Clear bronze beer with large foamy white head.Light carbonation. Aroma is grassy, woody, barnyard, earthy. Full body, oily texture. Quite sweet and malty. Surprisingly so. Hop bitterness asserts itself in the finish. Old school, easy drinking IPA.

Can't believe I haven't rated this, so picked up a 355ml bottle from Tesco. Pours clear golden with a thin white head. Aromas of resin and dried orange. Taste is resinous too, more dried orange peel and spice. Bitter, slightly sticky toffee finish.

(Bottle) Pours clear amber with big white head. Nice fruity aroma with floral notes - fruit salad, maybe paw paw. Light body, medium carbonation. Taste has nice backbone of caramel malt with big hop flavours - fruity at first and thennice bitterness. Nice IPA.
