Can at Craft CG - thanks to Colin! It pours cloudy golden orange with a medium white head. The aroma is fresh, green, weedy, dank, brioche, sponge cake and some sticky fruits. The taste is slick, bitter, green, weedy, dank, brioche, grassy, sweet pineapple and other tropical fruits. Medium body, fine carbonation and slick, oily mouth-feel. Heavy for sure, but enjoyable.

Can split at CBC Gilesborn, picke up from Ghost Whale IIRC, 25/04/18. Hazed orange amber with a decent off white covering. Nose is dank hop chimes, pine resin, grapefruit, citric tinged straw, juicy tropicana. Taste comprises sticky tropical fruits, pine needle, mango flesh, light mineral chase. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with sticky resinous hop bitterness. Decent enough DIPA offering ... easy drinker but no Wow.

Can. Very hazy orange - gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Light palate, mildly dry, reasonable fine carbonation. Smooth malts, mildly sweet. Decent orange hops, modestly fresh and with a little peel. Mild savoury bitterness and a spot of mango. Light finish brings a touch of spice. Not bad but lacks something, could be fuller.

Can from Salt Horse. Murky amber body with a thin white head. Steady carbonation. Good lacing. Aroma of dried mango and cigarette butt. Flavour boozy Lilt (thanks to my sis for this one), spring onion and mango. Medium body with an oily texture. Soft fizz. Not bad.
