440ml can. Slightly hazy orange, white head. Aroma of grapefruit, pine, caramel. Taste is the same, piney, grapefruit, orange, with some sweet caramel/toffee malt and grains, bitter hop finish with some light earthy notes. It's old school in a sort of nostalgic way. As jmgreenuk said; a bit simple by today's standards but actually pretty enjoyable.

440ml can from the Phantom taproom. Poured a mostly clear golden colour with a lasting frothy white head and a few bubbles. The aroma is grainy malt, light toffee caramel. The flavour is moderate bitter, light sweet, with a crisp, fresh, malt, light toffee, woody hop bitter palate and a lingering bitter finish. A rather simple IPA by today’s standards but very tasty and moreish.
