New world IPA bursting with hops from the Pacific North West. The juicy malt backbone acts as the perfect platform for the hops to shine.

Hazy amber beer, good pale cream colour head, Palate is light and slightly soft. Good fine carbonation. Airy sweetish pale malts, mild cream. Hops bring spicy orange and a little marmalade. Mild pine and a trace of lemon. Light semi dry finish. Nicely balanced and pretty drinkable.

Pint at Blackfriars, Glasgow. Clear amber beer with a thin foamy head. Lovely strong pine scent. Flavour follows suit with some light lemon notes and then some lingering toffee which lends a bit of balance to it. Could see myself happily going through a few of these on a summery afternoon.

On cask at the Guildford Arms. Appearance - hazy golden with a proportionate head. Nose - lime and mango combo. Taste - more of the same. Luscious and generously fruity. Palate - close to medium bodied with a creamy texture and a long dry and beautifully balanced finish. Overall - delicious. Tasty but moreish.

Bottle on the train during the Isle of Wight Jolly. Cheers Soapy. Pours hazy gold, effervescent, with a creamy white head. Good nose with light piss, grapefruit and pine needles. Medium sweet flavor with pleasant grapefruit pith, dirty pine, light booze. Medium bodied with average to lively carbonation. Lightly warming and resinous on the finish with nice citrusy hop character. Good one.

Bottle - Grapefruit and tons of sweet fruity notes. Cloudy gold with a beige head. Pithy sweet bitterness up front and some fruitiness. Not bad.

Bottle shared during the IoW Jolly. It pours clear gold with a small white head. The nose is toasty, grainy, grassy, hay, straw, dough and juicy citrus. The taste is clean, crisp, bitter, tropical fruits, lemon peel, grapefruit, creamy, grainy, straw, dough and mild spice with a dry finish. Medium body and moderate carbonation. Clean, crisp and crushable. Very nice.
