Bottle from Sourced Market St Pancras and drunk at home. Hazy russet colour lasting cream head. Toffeeish aroma. Boozy. Hops are big and even quite sour. It’s big, hot and hoppy. Toffee throughout. Wow. Bit boozy mind. Bit out of balanced.

Bottle shared at Leightons pad. Many thanks to Colin for this one. Hazed golden, orange coloured pour with a thin white head. Aroma is resinous orange, hot alcohol, plastic, little juicy hop. Flavour is composed of juicy orange, resin, little pine, slight sweet caramel, not that clean, pollen. Palate is sticky hop resin, highish carbonation. Big firm juicy firm but slightly rough bitterness. Semi dry in the finish. Pretty juicy but rough round the edges.

Bottle thanks to T-Bois. It pours cloudy orange-amber with a small white head. The nose is fresh, juicy, orange, tangerine, sherbet and passion fruit. The taste is bitter, rather boozy, spice, earth, brown bread, tangerine, grapefruit, white sugar and orange rind with a warming finish. Medium body and moderate carbonation. Great aroma, but a bit boozy and rough around the edges.

Bottle shared in London - thanks to Colin. Pours cloudy gold with a creamy white head. Nice aroma, rich citrusy hops, light pine, pale bread. Medium sweet flavor with robust, oily hop character, strong minerality, citrus pith and rind. Medium bodied with fine to average carbonation. Pithy finish with more minerals, flint, dry pale bread, pine, grapefruit. A little rough at the margins but close to being quite good.

Bottle from the Bottle Shop, Bermondsey, consumed at home, Sunday 8th February 2015 Pours orange with film white head. Very thick in mouth and a tad harsh. Bitterness is levelled out with some sweetness but the hoppiness is more than a bit rough around the edges. I have to say I prefer the standard version, to me this is boozier and a little unbalanced.
