The beer that never misses the target; all the hoppy goodness of an IPA but brewed to a sessionable strength. Made with generous amounts of US West Coast hops, it's a full bodied, well-balanced and fruity beer, with flavours and aromas of passion fruit, gooseberry, grapefruit and mango.

Clear orange to gold blond beer, creamy off-white head, pretty stable, a bit adhesive. Aroma: pretty floral, some tropical fruits, juicy, some pineapple. MF: ok carbon, medium body. Taste: a bit piny, sweet, yeasty touch, some banana, soft acidity, fruity, peach flavoured candy. Aftertaste: some peach flavoured iced tea, a little bitter, fruity, a bit sugary, a little dank, nice enough, I like it!

Lattina. Il gusto al naso resta attratto dal luppolo. L'intensità olfattiva è elevata e la maniera in cui permane è apprezzabile. Il mantello birroso superiore è caratterizzato da una schiuma che resiste abbastanza. La grandezza delle bollicine è a grana medio-fine. Il liquido è di consistenza limpida. Il colore è giallo dorato brillante. Il corpo è strutturato. L'amaro è deciso. La forza gustativa è elevata e la permanenza è buona. Il gusto è piacevole. Le sensazioni boccali finali risultano luppolate. Il retrogusto è intenso. In bocca l'aroma è quello di luppolo, resina, pino, agrumi, pompelmo e ananas.

Clear gold with a bubbly white head and a fruit and hop aroma. Light bodied, a little fizzy with some light malt, citrus notes, hop bite and a bittersweet finish

Another from my Father's Day present. A really good pale ale that haired perfectly with a homemade Goan lamb curry. Lots of sweet hops and plenty of body. All round drinkable.

Stråfarget. Litt uklar. Høyt kritthvitt luftig skum som daler sakte. Litt lacing. Aroma av gress & sitrusfrukt. Smaken som aromaen. Vel mye kullsyre. Søt. Beskjeden bitter avslutning.
