The simple malt bill gives an ABV of 5.8% which carries the flavour and really allows the hops to shine through. The hops used are of American origin, Colombus, El Dorado and Cascade. With multiple generous additions in the kettle and further dry hopped before it reaches you as fresh as it can be.

Keg draught at the Blue Boar, Leicester. Light gold and clear with a tight white head. Aroma. Hmmm. Floral notes, sweet herbs, citrus, a bit of white pepper. Sweet taste, more citrus, resinous, a bit of persimmon,with a bitter finish. Wow, this is interesting. Not the top tier of IPAs but it's certainly got personality. Recommended.

On tap at Dew Drop, Galway. Brnja's Stag Party. Clear yellow to golden. Aroma is moderately hoppy, citrusy, earthy. Thin, light, sweet, light bitterness. Smooth. Flavour is malty, citrusy, herbal. Dry finish but little bitterness.

Bière trouvée au Comptoir Irlandais. Robe dorée limpide, mousse blanche fine, assez persistante. Nez typique sur le houblon américain, avec une belle présence d’agrumes, surtout pamplemousse, et une légère touche herbacée. L’attaque est vive, bien sèche, centrée sur les houblons : agrumes, zeste, amertume nette. Ensemble plaisant, bien équilibré, mais le corps reste un peu en retrait. Une IPA sympa, rafraîchissante, qu’on aurait aimée un peu plus charpentée.

Tap at The Beer Temple, Dublin. Classic American IPA, a touch uninteresting maybe but surely without flaws.

Bottle from Stanislaus Brewskovitch, Zwolle. Aroma is resinous and fruity hops with tropical fruits, grapefruit, orange, and pine resin. Flavour is light to moderate sweet with a solid bitterness. Body is medium. Simply a fine classic west coast IPA.
