Actually works pretty well for an IPA. Just as guapo as the guy on the bottle. Agave integrates pretty well. Golden pour with decent head. Very bitter finish. Bottle.

Cask at GBBF. It pours clear amber with a bubbly white head. The is sweet, juicy, peach, tangerine, grapefruut, marmalade and candied peel. The taste is dry, raw bitterness, earthy, pine, resin, grapefruit, some cheddar, toasty grain and alcohol sting through the finish. Medium body and soft carbonation. More I have it the cheesier it gets. Nice aroma anyhow. OK.
