Supercharged India Pale Ale.... Rich/bright & amber/bronze with lots of American hop aroma. Distinctly bittersweet on the palate with a massive hop complexity fashioned deep within the IPA tradition.

On tap @ The Snowdrop, Lewes. Smooth and great earthy beginning. Lots of intense sticky piney hops. Round and very intense with a smooth but fresh long grainy dry and extremely hopped aftertaste with pine and earthy hops. Great!

On tap at Clove Hitch Liverpool. Deep amber copper colour lasting beige head. Big grapefruit resin aroma. Lots of sweet grapefruit resin pine in the mouth but in a good way. Yes intense grapefruit piney ipa. Fairly sweet and unsubtle. Harsh carbonation. Ok.

Keg @ Cafe Beermoth, Manchester. Hazy, deeper amber coloured ale with a thick frothy head. Has a strength, but still very palatable with a strong tropical fruitiness thatโs a little stewed, but still full of character being crisp and flavoursome.

Keg at the Beavertown 4th birthday celebration. Pours clear gold with a frothy, white head. The nose holds pithy citrus, dry pale malts. Light-medium sweet flavor, quite dry and pithy, with flinty minerals, hay, dried citrus fruits. Medium bodied with average carbonation. Drying and pithy on the finish, with some rindy bitterness, pine needles, minerals. Not bad.

Bottled. Hazy orange colour with a mediumsized beige foamy head. Aroma is a bit soapy notes along with some fruity, floral and mild wooden notes. Flavour is mellow floral and fruity bitterness along with a slight bready and caramelly maltiness to it. Mellow and quite pleasantly balanced. Smooth palate as well, as the carbonation is a bit lively, but at the same time smooth when drinking.
