Medium, white head over fully hazy yellow beer. Citrus, citruspeel, asafoetida, lunaria, nectarine in the nose. Bitter, bit cheesy, dried green herbs, orangepeel. Falls a bit dead tastewise, not much aftertaste. Quite slick, bit sticky, yeast-filled. Not half bad, just ending a bit lame compared to some other of their beers.

Hoppy and fruity, some citrus, some stone fruit. Slight sweetness, a bit of overripe peach. Nice.

28th July 2020 Can. Hazy gold beer, residual pale cream colour head. Palate is light and semi dry and has a fine minerally crispness. Light malts are sweet enough. Hops are crisp pine and crisp lemony orange that seems Azacca imparted. Touch of fresh orange and a trace of ripe mango. The HBC366 of Ekuaquinoxalot or whatever the fuck they are calling it these days, seems anonymous. Oh and there is also some new hop blend in here - yawn, the stuff that isn't selling so well, I'll wager. Crisp finish. It's a nice bright, crisp and drinkable dipa and thus my bitching about various hops should be curtailed. Some hop sting on the crisp finish.

Can at home in Hackney - picked up at Clapton Craft. Pours unclear orange-gold with a frothy, white head. Medium sweet flavour, lightly dank, some tropical notes, papaya, tangerine, orange rind. Medium to full bodied with average carbonation. Lightly warming finish, more pleasant dankness, melon, a little pine, mango, more citrus rind. A little more bitterness in the aftertaste. Excellent.
