Bottle from Yamaya. On sale. I’d heard about this beer so wanted to check it out but what a colossal disappointment. It looks like an IPA but then smells super grassy like a lame lager. The taste is again ovverpoweringly grass & hay with a bit of malt sweetness and a touch of hops. In no way is this what a North American expects from an IPA. Probably the worst IPA I’ve had...

Not very hoppy for an IPA. Aroma and taste are weak and mouthfeel is watery. However flavor emerges when it warms a bit. Elements of caramel and toffee come through...

Clearly a strong ale, but not necessarily any better than Greene King’s regular IPA.

Nice deep golden colour with a fine white head. Very caramel malty aroma. Unusual IPA. Even a british one. Mostly caramel malt flavour. Light fruity. Althoug a fresh and nice beer. But missed all the hopps.

50 cl bottle thanks to Micke (not on ratebeer), sampled on June 23, 2012Clear copper color, off-white head. Malty, caramel, butter scent. Typical (for me) brittish malt character in taste. Medium mouthfeel and bitterness.
