This extra pale ale may look calm and tranquil, but as you throw it back the mass of hop induced flavours will drown your taste buds. This is one Rogue Wave that’s going to quench your thirst!

Slightly hazy orange color, small steady white head, lace. Gooseberry and mango in the nose. Medium-bodied. Gooseberry bush hoppyness, pine hoppyness in the flavor. Quite dry. Clean and balanced IPA.

(Bottle, 0.5 l - BB 25 JUL 2014, from Drink Shop, 20140214) The beer poured pale golden and clear. Its head was medium sized and white. Aroma had mango, pine and mildly nettles. Palate was medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were fruitiness, pine, sweetness, malts and bitterness. Aftertaste was fruity, sweet and bitter. A nice but thin brew.

0,5L bottle BB 05.08.14. Pours slightly opaque golden with decent white head. The head stays for some time. It has nice lacing. Aroma: citrus, grass, pine. Taste: citrus, grapefruit, caramel, pine, some mango. Finish is grapefruit bitter. Overall: a little bit too thin for my taste. It tastes a lot like hoppy lemonade.

Pours gold with a slowly fading head.Nose shows peach, floral hops, biscuity malt and a little caramel.More biscuity malt as a flavour along along with spicy, herbal and earthy hops. Very pleasant. Finishes with an assertive but balanced biterness.Great moderately high carbonation.

Taste is hoppy, floral and fruity with hints of crisp maltiness, caramel and citrus. Finish is smooth, slightly bitter and fruity with hints of maltiness. Okay, quite refreshing pale ale.

Bottle, 10C. Hazy pale amber with a white head. Delicate hoppy aroma of citrus and tropical fruit - mango, lychee, grapefruit, orange blossoms. Light creamy texture, very alive. Sweet and fruity with some bubble gum. Finish is quite dry but not all that bitter. A little pine at the end too. Sophisticated combination of hops, lovely balance.

Cask ale, half at Blue Blazer. Disappearing white tophead. Clear, pale amber coloured body. Moderate citrus nose with a resin-like touch. Fresh fruit hoppy taste joined by malty sweetness beneath. Smooth bittersweet tail, well balanced and bodied. Quite moreish stuff (Edinburgh 09.08.2013).

Bottle shared at the ChrisO Flags of Many Nations Easter Tasting 2013 - London. Pours clear gold with a light, white foam head. Lots of piss in the nose, mango and tangerine, too. Light to medium sweet flavor with more pee, pineapple, papaya, some white bread pale malts. Light to medium bodied with fine carbonation. Lightly resinous pine needle finish with more tropical fruits, tangerine. A lovely APA. Wonderfully balanced.
