Built like an IPA but at a strength that makes it ultra crushable, Sonic is the full flavoured, hop forward pale ale that you can drink all day. Immense citrus hop aroma paired with a crisp, dry and balanced bitter finish.

Can 330ml (BG, BB 01/2019)
Murky yellow colour, good cloudy white head and lace. Aroma is hayish with some fruityness. Light to medium-bodied. Citrus, fruits and hay but quite dry. Some gooseberry bush in the finish. Probably needs to be very fresh, this is 4-5 months old?

Can picked up from Beer Gonzo Webshop, Earlsdon, Coventry, consumed at home sat down the garden by the pond after a hard day of knocking a wall down, Saturday 19th May 2018. Just about to start cooking Buttermilk Chicken with Chipolte Slaw. Pours hazy yellow/orange with a fluffy white head. Soft in the mouth a little ice cream, a little like A smoothie, nice fruitiness. . Best beer of the night so far, it's really good, no whistles or bells just a very solid session IPA.
