Very hazy gold beer, good white head. Palate is smooth and semi dry and has decent fine minerally carbonation. Light malts, light creamy sweetness, a bit thin. Light pine into good fresh orange and light tropical fruits. Modest hop spice. Light finish. Pleasant, but as so often happens with SIPAs, I feel a bit cheated, just add more of everything and make an IPA!

(Draught at BrewDog Kungsholmen, Stockholm) Hazy (or murky) golden amber colour with frothy, white head. Fruity, hoppy nose with notes of tropical fruit, mango, pineapple and grapefruit. Malty, hoppy taste with bread, pineapple, mango, grapefruit and a dry finish with a fresh, balanced citric/resiny bitterness. Medium body, dry. Tasty and refreshing. Nice one.

330ml bottle. Murky, grey-ish golden colour with huge, thick, frothy to creamy, fairly lasting, moderately lacing, white head. Resinous, piney, slightly citrusy and minimally leafy, hoppy aroma, notes of lemon, lime, unripe nectarine. Taste is citrusy hoppy, slightly resinous and piney, minimally leafy, notes of lime and lemon. Nicely dirty, juicy, would like to see this as a full-grown IPA.

Growler fill. Turner’s, Sheffield. Lovely fat litre of it. Super murky, dark straw colour. Messy, lacing, white head. Nose has mango and passion fruit. Some peach stone. Bit of a ripe pear thing going on. Some piny notes. Taste is a little dry, and light, stone fruit, mineraly bitter. Light body. Soft carbonation. Could do with a little juicy sweetness. Light dry and bitter finish.

On tap at the brewery Bermondsey. Cloudy white gold colour lasting white head. Looks like a weizen. Tropical fruit juice. That is remarkable. Passionfruit mango. Its just ridiculously fruity. So drinkable it just slipped down. Never out of balance. Amazingly good. Bit fizzy and looks unappealing byt taste is awesome
