355ml can from Chez Sophie, Shrewsbury. Pours unclear misty gold, thick rocky white head. Aroma is pleasantly fruity, sweet malt, some orange shades. Taste continues along similar lines with an appealing fruity character, malty sweet with nice citric shades, some distant dank stonefruit nods. Nicely presented fruity IPA. Good introduction to this brewery.

Super hazy golden and peach coloured body with a thinnish, single centimetre tall tan head that leaves a pretty ugly lace. Aroma of grass, hay, citrus fruits, light grain and a dash of alcohol, as well as some subdued and non-bittering hops. Medium-bodied; Strong grassy bite at first with a very dry and floral profile with some nice malts, a pleasant malt backbone and a touch of alcohol noticeable at the very end. Aftertaste shows the nice hops throughout with a lot of grass and herbal qualities at the end, but a smooth hop profile while being quite fruity with a little sweetness and some alcohol as well. Overall, a very nice rich IPA that is on the hazy side of things (unfiltered) and leaves more of the flavours from the individual hop components than the bitterness they provide. Nice to sample and well recommended if you can find it and have it fresh! sampled this twelve ounce can purchased from Knightly Spirits in Orlando (Orange Blossom Trail), Florida on 19-April-2019 for US$2,84, sampled at home in Washington on 23-September-2019.

For the aromas, rotten fruit dominates along with some resin Hops and wet grain. Flavors are similar to nose, include butterscotch, slightly more bitter than sweet. The rotten fruit and butterscotch really get in the way of everything else. Long bitter finish.
