Tap at CBB Garden’s IPA & Meat Event. A deeper amber-copper color with a 1cm head of foam. Fruity and malty bouquet. Medium bodied and bitter woodsy pine. The taste is green earthy pine with some fruit notes. Tasty enough.

Bottle. Amber with a fine, lasting white head. Aroma of sweet tropical fruit and caramel, kumquats. Very sweet and has a fair bit of body. An array of citrus - kumqaut, grapefruit and lime - but it’s mango, earth and toffee that come though most until it dries out a little and the bitterness grips. Then there’s a nice hit of pepper. A bit caramel heavy for me but good.
