Can thanks to my bro. It pours murky dark golden - blonde with a thick, fluffy off - white head. The aroma is sweet, tropical, orange creamsicle, peaches & cream, um bungo, pineapple, lilt, brioche, touch green, bubblegum and fanta. The taste is firmly dry, touch bitter, green, sappy, resinous, peppery spice, peachy, milk bottles, slightly chalky, tannin, orange creamsicle, fanta, marmalade sandwiches, peppery spice, boozey heat and a touch of rawness with a drying finish. Medium body and moderate carbonation. Nice quite as bright and clean as I would like.

440ml can. Hazy orange, big white head. Aroma of sweet malts, and tropical fruits, caramel. Taste is sweet, caramel, malts, ripe mango, orange, toffee. It really does feel like some sort of NEIPA barley wine hybrid - its odd, but I kinda like it.

On cask at the Bow Bar. Appearance - deep amber to brown. Off white head. Nose - brown bread and red fruit. Also some orange peel. Taste - raisins, nuts and candied orange. Palate - medium bodied, creamy and sweet through the middle. Still a touch sweet on the finish. Overall - quite like this but not an IPA. More like the beginnings of barley wine.

Cask at Crewe Dog, Crewe – very large free sample ! Pours a murky orange with a small white head. Nuts and tropical fruits in the aroma. Alcoholic strength is well evident in the mouth, along with autumn fruits and mango. Finish is very dry indeed. Interesting, but a bit strange – will have to try a bigger sample next time ! Rerate - 3 days later from same source. Pretty much the same conclusion, but the head is foamy and there's good lacing. I've decided I quite like it !
