Brewed with our friends at Mother Kelly's, All Good Beer, The High Cross, and Binch - All of us Alumni from Mother Kelly's! This is an old school, single hop Centennial DDH IPA - Malty, piney, resinous with a tangerine and orange finish. A great throwback to IPA's of the 1990's!

Can thanks to Grumbo: Poured a coppery amber with a huge foamy off white head. Aroma is grassy, piney, hops, malt. Taste is very tart fruity, some metallic, bitterness, malty, medicinal. I think this one is infected.

8/5/2020. Can bought from the brewery at the start of lockdown. Pours cloudy pale orange with an average size off-white head. Aroma is piney, hoppy, malty, orange. Moderate sweetness and medium plus bitterness. Earthy and resinous finish. Definitely a throwback to early modern IPA’s.

Keg at Mother Kelly’s - Bethnal Green. Pours unclear orange with a creamy, mostly white head. Good old-school IPA, lots of piney character, decent bitterness, malty backbone, ripening citrus fruits. Medium to full bodied, lightly chewy, with fine, massaging carbonation. Lightly resinous finish, nips of grass, pine, sun-kissed malts, orange rind. Not bad.
