Isle Of Wight Holiday Beer#64. Hazy dark amber and carbonation as part of its taste here. Behind the bubbles it's quite a gritty bitter tasting IPA. Hoppy to an extent, with an easy enough strength. Found at the Isle Of Wight distillery pub.

Can. Chinook, Amarillo, Citra hops. Hazy orange gold beer, good bubbly pale cream colour head. Light palate, mildly dry, good fine minerally carbonation. Airy malts, sweet enough for this brew. Good US hoppage, a reasonably bright citrus underpinned by cooling pine. Some citrus peel. Orange, tangerine and mandarin. Light finish. Very good pale ale (not really an IPA is it?). Impressed with this brewery, would like to try some of their other brews.

16/9/2023. Can at the Vojens GP beer share. Bought direct from the brewery. Pours clear dark orange amber with a small frothy off-white head. Aroma is malty, orange, citrus, caramel, biscuit, earthy and piney notes. Moderate sweetness, medium bitterness. Moderate body, slightly watery, average carbonation. Dry orange finish. Nice, but lacks some body.

Can at the April DC Ratebeer tasting. Poured a clear copper orange color with a medium sized off-white head. Aroma was a little too herbal, a little too earth. Some light floral notes but not overly hoppy. Just fine.

Can split at the DC tasting, at Nimbleprop pad, 13/04/23. Moderately hazed golden to light amber with an off white cap. Nose is bitter orange, straw, grains, old skool. Taste comprises caramel, grass, orange peel, straw. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close spliced with earthy hop bitterness. So so affair.
