500ml bottle from Tuffin's (Craven Arms, Shropshire); BB Oct 2021. Poured into a tall 8 Sail Brewery pint sleeve at home on 22nd Nov 2020. Mucky orange body, murky and dull; white head on top. Nose and taste hold fruity notes, exotic fruits, not your regular apples and pears or anything common; we are talking stuff from overseas like Mango and Orange, are Apricots tropical or do we grow them in the UK now global warming is happening? Asking for a friend! Anyway, the head stayed around and gave off some lacing, so no problems condition wise and it held it's 'freshness' nicely. Enjoyed it.

500ml bottle after a 54 mile ride around Bucknell and the ancient woodland of the Earl of Mortimer estate, South Shropshire. Misty amber appearance, moderate white head. Aroma of sticky sweet malt, citrus fruit. Vienna malt provides a good backbone to sweet candied fruit, marmalade, very subtle sabro with a confident bitterness. Quite juicy, malt-forward, flavoursome, straddles the line between a red IPA and standard fruity IPA. Pretty good.
