Our India Pale Ale is a new take on this highly popularized style. Citrus is the obvious star. Over the backbone of bready malt and pine stickiness you will find notes of peaches, lemon zest, danky grassiness, pine needles, and tangerines. Each sip is followed by a dangerously drinkable amount of resinous glamour.

Draft at brewery. Dark golden pour, small lasting head. Classic IPA notes, malty with a bitter, hoppy bite. What IPAs used to taste like 5 years ago.

Can. Hazy gold beer, good fluffy pale cream colour head. Airy and fairly dry palate, decent fine minerally carbonation. Light clean malts, lightly sweet. Bitterish orange peel and a touch of fresh orange. Reasonable pine. Light and bitterish finish. Straight down the line and decent.

Can from GBBF 2018 and drunk at home. Haze amber colour lasting cream head. Pine resin aroma. Some malty toffee on aroma. Smells like an old style PNW piney resiny IPA. Now that goes better in the mouth than I expected. Ripe pink grapefruit and some nectarine too. Touch of sweetish caramel, but underlying and not overbearing. The sweet sparkling rich fruit flavours are what stand out. It is quite sweet. The fruit is more white stone fruit with some citrus overlayed. Carbonation is ok. It's a bit one trick, but the trick is a good one. Really good fruit throughout and highly entertaining.
