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!

Tasting at ChrisO’s. Light haze on this gold beer. Big off white head. Light crisp palate. Light malt cream - good fresh tasting hops. Fairly lemon floral - a bit Sorachi Ace like. Light skunk and citrus. Light dry finish. Second best beer of the day I think.

Cans from Cork & Cask and Great Grog. Hazy pale golden body with a thin white head. Low carbonation. Nice lacing. Aroma of tangerine, white wine and flower petals. Flavour of white grape, lemon jelly and grapefruit. Thin to medium body with a smooth texture. Soft fizz. Light and subtle.

Cask @ Bandstand Bar, Nairn
Amber, clear, frothy white head with good lacing
Aroma - tropical fruits, soft grapefruit citrus hops, sweet pale caramel malt backbone
Taste - citrus hops, tropical fruits, light grassy hops, soft hop resins, some tangy orange, soft bitter zest, quite complex hop profile, soft fruity pale caramel malts in the background
Palate - soft carb, medium body, oily creamy texture, bit acidic. Finish as main flavour, clean finish, bit oily
Overall - This is better cask than on keg (which I didn’t rate) - I prefer Red Rocker over this though

On gravity at the Factoberfest, the Tobacco Factory, Bristol 7/09/2012. Deep gold with a slight, off-white head. Sweet, caramel and tropical fruit fruit aroma with plenty of grassy hops. Flavour had more sweetness, with some slightly bready malts, tangerine and pineapple fruit and lingering dry finish. Enjoyable.

Cask at the Plough Inn and the Anderson, Fortrose. It pours clear amber, with a thin white head. The nose is tangerine, orange, passion fruit, grass, varnish and oily hop. The taste is grapefruit, orange, tangerine, citrus pith, floral, Irn Bru even, varnish and some hop oiliness, with a bitter finish. Medium body and soft carbonation. Would love to also try this in keg. Delicious!

On tap @ Duke’s Corner, Dundee. Pours golden with some head. The nos is bursting with pine and grapefruit. The taste has grapefruit and particularly grapefruit pith. the palate is medium bodied with a tangy middle texture and a clean, zingy finish. Overall, a modern pale ale by numbers, basically!
