Can. Archer Road Beer Stop, Sheffield. Deep orange. Light haze. Thin, sticky, white head. Nose has jammy, spicy hop. Notes of ripe orange. Hint of woody herb, maybe. Sweet, soft toffee malts behind that. Taste is initially sweet and toffeeish, turning light, fruity, resinous bitter. Smooth mouthfeel. Easy drinking. Shortish, light bitter finish. Nice one.

On cask. Deep golden body, white head. Aroma and taste of bread, grape seed, pine and citruses. Minimal sweetness upfront but then the hops take over. The finish is quite dry. Very nice IPA.

Tap from Taps Beer Bar in KL during layover. Translucent - almost opaque - orange amber pour. Frothy head. Aroma is sweet fruit and hops. Taste is sweet and fruity hops with a good amount of bitterness and a tiny bit of sour/funk. Crisp finish. Quite drinkable.

Hand-pulled pint in Ye Old Fighting Cocks, Oakengates on 17th May 2014. Amber pour with a full white crown that hung around for a while. Hops rule the roost throughout the brew. Not as in your face as some of the US West Coast beers but plenty for the UK. A bit one dimensional maybe but pleasant all the same.

Cask @ Brewery Shades, Crawley. Amber, clear with considerable white head and lacing. Tropical fruit aroma with a hint of malt and hay. Taste starts out slightly sweet and then... I can feel my tongue dry. Wow. Bitter on a US IPA scale but also nicely balanced. A well executed beer to cherish and remember.
