UNCONVENTIONAL. UNCOMPROMISING. WE LOVE IT.

Forget crystal-clear beers with delicate flavour profiles. Our juicy and unapologetically murky New England IPA is made to leave a lasting impression. Traditionalists will hate it. But to us, it’s the one.

An authentic Vermont yeast strain and a big dose of oats work together with plenty of dry hops to create stunning aromas and a silky-smooth finish.

JUICY HARD-HITTING HAZY

From tap at Bierproeflokaal In De Wildeman, Amsterdam, 29.03.19. Hazy yellow straw colour. Diminishing white head and fine white lacing. Superb aroma and taste of grapefruit, lime zest, pineapple and very solid citrus and pine bitterness. Lively carbonation. Good!

Keg @ Vocation & Co, Hebden Bridge. Cloudy amber with a small head. Its tropical fruitiness hides this greater strength version very well. It's quite juicy with a small dryness.

Can. Tesco. Murked up, dirty gold. Fine white head. Lacing and lasting. Nose has pungent, oily hop. Weed. Sharp citrus. The oat addition is noticeable. Waft of savoury, too. Taste is pithy, oily bitter. Hint of astringency. Sweetness on the lips. Medium body. Fine carbonation. Lingering bitterness to finish. Too bitter to be true to style, and a tad savoury and bitter but, you know, it’s fresh, cheap, and readily available.

Can for the pricely sum of £2 at Tesco Inverurie. It pours more hazy than murky, bright golden - yellow with a small white head. The aroma is sweet, juicy, yet mellow, ripe stone fruits, apricot, nectarine, mango and a touch green/weedy. The taste is crisp, dry, minimal bitterness, bit grassy, weedy, straw, apricot, pithy tangerine, kumquat, waxy rind and a touch of alcohol with a drying finish. Medium body, fine, foamy carbonation. Decent stuff. Green and fruity. Not bad.

Can at home split with Sarah, picked up from Tesco. A translucent golden orange coloured pour with a fine white head. Aroma is nice danky hops, hint of onion, orange rind, juicy fruits, peach. Spicy citrus on the nose. Flavour is composed of semi sweet, milky wheat, slick oats, creamy orange, spicy citrus, green mango, mellow dank, Palates is semi sweet and sticky, hop oils, moderate carbonation. Surprisingly good.
