Can from House Of Trembling Madness. Clear golden body with a thick off-white head. Lively carbonation. Aroma of pine and pineapple. Flavour of melon and orange with a bitter finish. Medium body with an oily texture. Soft fizz. A crisp, well balanced IPA. Verdant don’t just nail east coast IPAs, they can brew excellent west coast ones too.

Can at home, from HOTM online, 23/12/22. Clear golden clear with a well presented lasting just off white head ... looks the bollocks! Nose is orange zest, grapefruit, pine needle, crisp citric flesh, light spruce tips. Taste comprises bitter orange, crisp malts, grapefruit, pine needle, straw, hop spice, bitter tropical fruit esters. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close peppered with lightly dankend resinous come grassy hop bitterness. Superb well balanced and bitter leaning WC affair.

Keg at the Experiment - Hackney. Pours clear, bright gold with a frothy, white head. Medium sweet flavour with juicy mango, pine, papaya, melon and tangerine, soft bitterness. Medium bodied with fine to average carbonation. Delicate resin in the finish, supportive malts, mild dankness, more bright fruity notes. Outstanding.

Tap at the experiment. An almost clear deep orange coloured pour with a lasting white cap. Aroma is nice big fresh dank grassy hop, sticky bud, pine sap,. Flavour is composed of rounded biscuit malts, light toffee, big dank hop, sticky pine, dirty resin. Palate is semi sweet, sticky, rounded, fine highish carbonation. Good stuff
