Our India Pale Ale continues on from headband but has the ABV that an IPA deserves. Think Blueberry muffins, dank, stinky and packed with juiciness with a good solid bitterness.

A very much "on style" craft IPA. A hazy golden colour, a good head and fine lacing. Lot’s of hops on the nose and I am sure I could detect some citrus fruit too. The taste was lots of pine laden hops and again there was citrus fruit lurking somewhere in the background. A good level of alcohol and overall very pleasant.
