440ml can. Pours murky golden with a white head. Aroma of citrus, tropical fruits, mango, pineapple, a little savoury. Taste of juicy fruits, mango, pineapple, grapefruit, pine, bittersweet... there's also a bit of a savoury note in this, onion like, moreso in the aroma, which brings this otherwise fantastic DIPA down a notch. Medium bodied, soft-moderate carbonation. Remove the savoury notes and you have an outstanding DIPA here.

Can picked up from Beer Gonzo Webshop, Earlsdon, Coventry. Consumed at Fire in the Mountain Festival, nr Aberystwyth, Wales, Friday 1st June 2018 Difficult to be exacting on colour owing to green plastic glass that is festooned with a Northern Rock Patrons Project label, however it tastes like it's probably going to be a murky yellowy colour with a white head. Soft in the mouth, a touch of heat from the alcohol, steady hoppiness. A little bit of ginger amongst the spicy hoppiness. A7 A4 T8 P4 Ov16 3.9
