Our IPA is one of the first and remaining traditional East India Pale Ales of its kind. Mahogany in colour, the blend of roasted malts and whole leaf hops combine to produce a rich, fully-bodied, 4.8%, classic strong ale with hints of chocolate, roasted coffee and orange zest.

Hand-pulled pint in The Nag's Head, Covent Garden on 8th Aug 2019. Decent enough, amber bodied with a slight red hue, white crown. Nice fruity nose and flavours, good balance between the hops and maltiness. Liked it.

Didn't want to start drinking yet, though didn't have a choice. It's my last name after all. Creamy and delicious.
