Keg at HL3, 01/09/17. Hazed orange with a decent off white cap. Nose is bitter orange, straw, mandarin, mellow pine notes. Taste comprises orange squash, hint of red grapefruit, spruce, toasted bread, grains, tangerine. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with mildly aggressive juicy hop bitterness declaring itself at the curtain call. Adequate IPA but plenty better brewed within 5 miles of my current location at a fraction of the £$£ !

Keg at the Bottle Shop - Bermondsey. Pours hazy gold with a tight, creamy head. The aroma has some woody aspects, orange peel, bread. Medium sweet flavour with a bit of flinty dryness, bitter grass, more wood, white grape, dried citrus peel. Medium to full bodied with average carbonation. Finishes with a little boozy warmth, some piney resin, more flinty-woody dryness, hay, pale grains, bitter orange peel. Underwhelming.

Keg at Hop Locker with me Bois. Pours gazed orange with a thin white head. Aroma is orange, pithy, pine and a little dank. Taste is a real bitter orange hit which has a really strong pine bitterness to it which lingers and gives a spicy finish. Maybe a little too carbonated but solid.
