Pours clear golden with a small off-white head, light lacing. Aroma is floral, herbal and sweet malts. Taste of floral, sweet caramel, honey and lemon peel. Different, not much of a ipa. This would taste good on a hot day. Crisp flavors.

22 oz. bottle, pours a hazy golden with a small white head. Aroma of grassy hops, orange, citrus, and toasted malt. Flavour is quite hoppy, with loads of grassy hops, citrus peel, oranges, slight caramel malts and toasted bread - finishes on a pleasant grassy hop astringency. Quite good.

12oz bottle from Pick’s poured into a shaker. Pours a hazy dark gold with about 2 fingers of white head. Aroma is mostly pine bitterness with a little dry Cheerio grain scent. Taste is light bitter and light sweet. Pine, caramel and cereal grains. Light bodied with a thin texture. Soft carbonation and an average finish. Overall, nothing really special here. Decent enough to drink but not something to seek out.

Bottle at Palace of Wonders. I can see how this one fits in with the theme of the bar, but the aste was disappointing. Pure bitterness without subtlety, complexity or character. Decent pine aroma,but that’s about it.

From a 355ml bottle on 3/11/2011 (ABV listed as 7.2%). Pours a clear bubbly golden colour with a thick, big white head. Has a quite a strong aroma of citrus fruit, honey and bread. Has a big citrus fruit flavour (lemon and orange) with little caramel. This is balanced by an equally big and quite assertive grapefruity hop finish. Didn’t know quite what to expect from an IPA style lager but this is good stuff. It’s a little reminiscent of the old BrewDog Punk IPA. A good one for hop heads who are looking for something a bit different style wise.

Pours a hazed orange-gold color with a thin white head that dissipates steadily. Short strings of lacing on the glass. Aroma of sweet malt, pineapple and piney hops. Medium body with a tropical fruit character and notes of yeast, malt and resiny hops. The finish is malty and fruity with a lingering sweetness. Decent overall.

Pours amber with a large, lasting head.Nose shows lots of diacetyl, toffee, honey and faint bready malt. Not much in the way of hops. Smells more like a bitter than an IPA.Flavours include some hop character, mainly pine and grapefruit, pretty plain. The heavy malt and diacetyl remains. The finish is overwhelming with a sharp, aggressive bitterness that’s pretty abrasive.Could use more carbonation, body seems pretty syrupy.
