A West Coast classic that hits you with tangerine and grapefruit aromas before balancing with a lush citrus pith finish. This Session IPA is as ideal for the Upright lady or gentleman of yesteryear as it is for the beer lovers of today.

330ml can. Clear, orangey, deep golden colour with average to huge, frothy, fairly lasting, minimally lacing, off-white head. Fresh, citrusy hoppy aroma, notes of grapefruit, lemon, hints of orange, a touch of pine, caramel malty background. Taste is bitter hoppy, slightly piney and citrusy, minimally chalky and leafy, weak caramel malty basis; lasting bitter and slightly chalky finish.

330ml can from cornelius. Pours hazy golden amber with a thick white head. Aromas of wood, stressed yeast, pine, orange. Taste is bitter, and very woody in that stressed yeast way. Astringent finish, solvents, glue. Not great.

Can from Cornelius. Hazy golden body with a thin white head. Steady carbonation. Aroma of grass, orange pith and lemon. Flavour of caramel, grapefruit, earth, minerals and a dry finish. Thin to medium body with an oily texture. Light fizz. A decent Session IPA - hoppy and very dry.

Keg at the Perseverence - Bloomsbury, London. Pours mostly clear, rich gold with a tight, creamy head. Lots of minerals in the nose, rindy citrus, dry pale bread. Light sweet flavor, very dry, fairly bitter, some pithy grapefruit, lots of rindy citrus, flinty minerals. Light bodied with average carbonation. Dry and highly flinty on the finish, with some crispy pale malts, more minerals, pithy and rindy citrus. The minerality really needs any other characteristics. So so overall.
