440ml can from the brewery. Poured a slightly hazy golden orange colour with a short-lived, frothy white head. The aroma is grainy malt, passionfruit, orange. The flavour is moderate bitter and sweet, with a fresh, smooth, juicy citrus, piney, dry, earthy, light pepper spice, light warm alcohol, hop bitter palate and a lingering bitter finish. Medium bodied with average to soft carbonation.

Keg @ Vocation & Co, Hebden Bridge. Mildly hazy golden, full bodied - full in the palate and its strength is very evident. Has a hopped fruitiness and sugars.

Draught Very good dense off-white head over veiled golden-orange beer. Strange nose, reminiscent of pasta-directed tomato sauce. I have discovered Umami smell, maybe? Straw, dry hops. Again!!! In the taste, sweet tomatosauce, tomatoconcentrate. Asafoetida, bit sulphury. Resins - if more in the MF than in the taste. Strange sweetish finish, rather dull. Medium bodied - at best. Quite slick. Not very convincing. Wonder what happened here?

Can at home from an online peddler, 26/10/21. Almost clear orange amber with a good sized off white cap that stays as a swirl. Nose is orange pith, old skool aromas, pine, bubblegum, soft malts, melon. Taste comprises bitter tropical fruits, hop spice, pine resin, grapefruit, melon, mango. Medium bodied with bite, fine carbonation, semi drying close spiked with semi aggressive hop bitterness. Solid boost DIPA with an old skool lilt.

Hazy golden, good white head. Light hoppy aroma. Flavour has grapefruit, grassy hop, some sweet lemon, maybe a bit of bitter orange as well. A dash of malt under there too. Stays light, fruity and fresh. Very tasty.
