Bottle at home. Aroma is tropical fruits, malt, citrus, orange, some pine resin, herbal tea, floral notes. Flavour is light to moderate sweet and medium bitter. Body is medium. Pleasant beer, moderately fruity herbal and nicely bitter. Proves that HBC-291 stands as a single hop variety.

Bottle from Cotteridge Wines; hazy orange pour with a small bubbly beige head, aroma has strong citrus almost like action, along with some sweet grainy malts, taste has sweet caramel, bitter action, grapefruit, some tangerine, pine hints, the parts are there just don’t combine well.

Bottle on the train to Egham Beer Festival, 04/08/16. Orange amber with a frothy egg shell white head. Nose is caramel malt, bitter orange, light spice, toasted grains. Taste is malt forward, bitter orange, caramel malt, light bread, toasted grains, faint tropical fruit whisper. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, hop bitterness in the close. Adequate Old Skool DIPA ... no wow factor here.

Bottle picked up at Albert Heijn XL, Purmerend, consumed at De Drie Morgen, Zoetermeer, Sunday 2nd October 2016 Pours hazy amber with a sticky white head, quite sweet, there is a nice subtle edge. This hop works well in just about everything I’ve had it in so far, we’re drinking this alongside the Nugget version. Soft in the mouth, a little spicy edge, it’s a decent IPA, really nice.

Creamy, a bit soft and watery. Fruity flavor, lime and pineapple, fairly (black) peppery. Moderate bitterness, could do with more. Not bad.

An orange beer, a head is medium and blond. Aroma has caramel malts, mandarin, some tropical fruitness, fructose and fruit candies. Taste has caramelly maltyness, quite strong bitterness that is long lasting, some citrusfruits. Medium+ bodied, nice carbonation, not heavy. Good and balanced DIPA, could be more fruitful and complex.
