44cl can from the brewery.
Very thin white head. Very hazy golden pour. Lovely bitterness. Well hidden alcohol.

Can ordered from the brewery. Sweet stone fruit aroma. Some citrus. Grass. A hint of resin. Opaque medium gold until top up for the full hazy effect. Fizzy foamy white head. Sweet stone fruit combined with a resinous streak. The bitterness is more prominent into the Finnish but it does have a syrupy sugaryness to it that compliments the resin bitterness. Medium bodied. Slick. Average carbonation. Long astringent finish. Not sure this one benefitted from the garlic chutney I have been scoffing but didn't ruin it either. Manages to be both syrupy and bitter. Enjoyable enough but wouldn't want to drink another as it would just get too much.

Can from Staggeringly Good Brewery, Portsmouth (online shop). A hazy golden orange coloured pour with a medium off white head on top. Hoppy, citrus, orange, grapefruit, tropical fruit aroma and taste. Enjoyable DIPA.

Can at home, from HOTM online, 13/12/20. Hazy orange with a decent off white cap. Nose is orange pith, pine, bitter tropical fruits, grass, sharp mango. Taste comprises bitter orange, ripe melon, grass, sweet malts, mango, weed, stoned fruits, hint of bubblegum. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close spiked with lightly aggressive juicy hop bitterness. Ok DIPA ... no great mind ... was just looking for a few more ticks on an order and saw this had a 4.2+ UT score ... now at 4.1 ... lesson for the week ... don't trust the newb types who pepper UT with their stoopid scores ... worse judgement than some of the palate lackers on RB !

Can from House Of Trembling Madness. Hazy golden body with a thin white head. Steady carbonation. Patchy lacing. Aroma of honey and orange. Flavour of marmalade and sponge cake. Medium body with an oily texture. Soft fizz. Boozy and sweet. A bit disappointing.
