Extra pale malt and bucket loads of American Simcoe and distinctive Sorachi Ace hops in the boil, steep and dry hop create this intensely fruity easy drinking DIPA. Coconut and vanilla with a citrus finish. Unfined, naturally hazy, and suitable for vegans.

Keg at Craft Limehouse. Cheese and chive, big. Can't feel booze. Nice but not much there apart from the hop but pretty enjoyable as I'm a fan of this hop being in your face.

Cask Pub & Kitchen. Keg. Light haze on this gold beer, tidy pale cream colour head. Palate is light, semi dry and has decent fine carbonation. Smooth malts bring a light creamy sweetness. Full gamut of Sorachi here - lemon cream, floral lemon and a touch of herby lemon. Trace of orange peel. Crisp semi dry finish. Nice Sorachi IPA.

Keg at Craft Clerkenwell, on the final Thames Tipple Saturday 22nd October 2016 Pours light/mid gold, a little hazy. A little creamy edge on the nose, quite sweet, the fruitiness is a touch tropical but overripe, it’s boozy, quite different and unusual but V.good. A fewer further sips and we both detect just a little butter on nose and in the mouth. A7 A4 T7 P4 Ov12 3.4

Keg at Craft Beer Co, Covent Garden, London. A hazy dark golden coloured pour with a healthy white head on top. Lovely sweet, malty, lemon aroma. Tastes slightly sweet, lemon, hint of vanilla, slightly hoppy, hint of pineapple. I love Sorachi but it is very difficult to describe its taste. Decent effort.
