What started out as a little bit of fun quickly became the favourite of many die hard ale fans and has become permanent. Probably best described stylistically as a Californian IPA, this beer has all the rich malt and fruit flavours of a Barley Wine combined with the hoppy crispness of a Pale Ale. And as best said by one of its biggest fans, "Hoppiness = Happiness."

30/04/2013 Bibere (tap). Ambrata scarica, torbida, schiuma liquida leggera ma persistente. Al naso sentori di pesca, agrumi ed erbaceo, note di malto ben presenti. In bocca è luppolata decisa, con base di malto ben presente, resina, finale non secchissimo ma discreto, ottima persistenza dell’amaro. Corpo medio, lievemente superiore alle attese, carbonazione corretta. Non male, ma avrei gradito sentire un po’ di "English touch".

660ml bottle from BeerRitz. Golden amber colour, thin white head and aroma of grapefruit citrus, pine and hop resin. Taste is sweet caramel malt, juicy orange and grapefruit citrus, plus floral & pine resin notes, with hoppy bitterness through to a dry earthy warming finish. Oily mouth feel, medium bodied, soft carbonation. Quite drinkable IPA.

Bottle at CBC - Clerkenwell, London during Bruce’s 30th Birthday Party. Many thanks to...me. Pours lightly hazy gold with a fine, white cream head. Nice hoppy nose with citrus, orange, melon. Medium sweet flavor with pleasantly dry citrus, tangerine, melon, grapefruit and pine needles. Medium bodied with fine, massaging carbonation. Light dryness to finish with hints of resinous pine needles, some toasty hay, lemon rind. Good stuff. Nice balance, cutting dryness. Certainly one of the better non-Kernel IPAs I’ve had in a while.

Bottle. It’s a lighlty unclear orange-golden beer topped by a decent off-white head. Quite hoppy aroma, with pine cones and citrus peel, some notes of grass and tropical fruits, and a little bit of malts. It’s quite sweet on the palate, not cloying though, and with sufficient bitterness to deal with it. Full body, with pleasant carbonation. Bitter and fruity finish. Overall, a nice beer, but it could use some more bitterness, and I wouldn’t argue against even more aroma hops. 130216
