440ml can. Light amber with a slight haze, small white head. Aroma of pine, resin, citrus fruits. Taste is very resinous, orange and grapefruit, pine, more resin in the finish with grapefruit peel, malts, decent bitterness - tad more wouldn't go a miss! Medium bodied.

Can. Light haze on this gold beer, teeny tiny bubbly pale cream colour head. Light malts, thin, mildly sweet. A touch of grain. Crisp pine. Crisp citric peel hops. A touch of brighter citrus on the back end. Whilst I'm all for a move away from the over yeast craze of the last few years, if the next step is a return to West Coast DIPAs, I dinnae want that either. Tidy but feels like drinking history.

Can at home, from HOTM online, 02/02/21. Lightly hazed orange golden with a decent just off white cap. Nose is bitter orange, grapefruit, light pine needle, melon, sticky tropical fruits, grass. Taste comprises orange pith, ripe pineapple, grass, melon, toasted malts, grapefruit zest. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, light drying close spiked with lightly aggressive grassy hop bitterness leading to a rising balanced boost. Decent DIPA ... delivers the West Coast vibe ... good level of bitterness offered.
