Bottle at my work. It pours golden – amber with a medium white head. The aroma is grassy, floral, dull citrus peel, earth and biscuit. The taste is dry upfront, bitter – sweet, orange rind, grassy, floral notes, touch of soap, pepper and white bread with a firmly dry finish. Medium body and fine carbonation. This is actually pretty all right for a UK-style IPA. Decent.

Cask en fábrica Cotoya. Color ámbar cerezo con poca espuma blanca. Aromas y sabores maltosos ligeramente dulces con amargos lupulados algo herbaceos y permanentes. Buena, refrescante.

Very good beer. Aroma is fruity, mostly citrus with a subtle hint of mint - an excellent combination wich contributes to an overall greatly refreshing taste. Finish is very, VERY dry and accompanied with a long lasting bitterness. This is definitely not a beer to quench your thirst. No, it actually makes me want to down one more - and who am I to resist such urges? :) Recommended!

Bottle. Appearance - a beautiful bright amber. Nicely proportioned head. Nose - light pine and perhaps some citrus. Taste - toffee and spiced biscuits. Nice lime on the finish. Palate - light to medium bodied with a creamy texture and a dry balanced finish. Overall - a nice ale which lies somewhere between IPA and Bitter.

500ml bottle (Fuller’s India Pale Ale) into shaker. Gusher! Nose of caramel and distant fruit. Cloudy golden orange beer with thin white head. Sporadic carbonation. Flat and clean mouthfeel. There’s a hint of fruit, some toffee, a malt background then resin bitterness. Finish is quite abrupt, making me want more! It’s delightfully refreshing.

Ambar ligeramente turbia. Dos dedos de espuma. Aroma agradable, floral, frutal a naranja y melocoton. Rico sabor, dulcemente floral y naranja amarga que va evolucionando hacia el final seco y ultra amargo caracteristico del estilo. Cuerpo moderado y carbonatacion contenida. Ipa Muy bebible, por el moderado alcohol. Notable.

Bottle from Booths, Media City. Slightly hazy golden-amber in colour, with a few bubbles for a head. Has a lovely light hoppy and fruity texture and taste for a beer that is over 5%, and plenty of nose in this respect too.
