Bottle from The Railway, Streatham. London - fuzzy orange pour with a puffy off-white head. Aroma and taste is prominent citrus fruity and juicy, big satsuma and lemon, also picked up some tropical mango and pineapple fruits as well, juicy and refreshing, went down a treat. Gorgeous.

Bottled 28/11/2014 - Pours hazy orange with a small white head. Aroma of juicy fruits, pear, apples, lemon and citrus. Taste is juicy fruity, chewy hoppy and crisp malty with some hints of lemon and citrus. Finish is smooth, hoppy and juicy fruity with some chewy caramely maltiness. Quite juicy IPA.

Bottle. Tall Boys, Leeds. Murky orange. Thin, messy, sticky, dirty white head. Lovely, orange zest hop. Some spice. Some light, resinous woodiness. Taste is fruity sweet, turning light dry, then a moderate bitterness lingers. Soft carbonation matches the fruity chew on the palate. Finishes long, rising bitter. Best I’ve had from Partizan in a while.

33 cl bottle @ home. Bottled 28.11.2014, BBE 28.05.2015
Not sure how I was supposed to pour this – the whole content of the bottle was hazy even though it had been standing in the fridge for 22 hours. Aroma is fruity with sweet pineapple juice and some tropical fruits. Flat palate does not have CO2 at all. Flavour has pineapple juice, some grapefruit and minerals. A tad too sweet.

Bottle at the brewery. Hazy amber - orange beer, small pale cream colour head. Palate is light and a little soft. Mild fine carbonation. Mild creamy malt sweetness. Hops are a nice combo of Orchard fruits, apple and pear, and mellow but crisp citrus, lemon notable. Whisper of tropical fruits. Light crisp finish. Nice showcase for this hop.

Bottle at home in London - picked up at the brewery. Pours hazed copper-gold with a frothy, off-white head that settles into a cream. The aroma is interesting, with notes of ripe and juicy citrus fruits but also suggestions of onion or garlic. Light to medium sweet flavor with low bitterness, ripe and somewhat gooey citrus fruits, some tangy nectarine, peach, orange and tangerine. Medium bodied with fine carbonation. Lightly resinous on the finish with some woody aspects, more ripe and gooey citrus, orange, tangerine, apricot. The aroma was a little bit odd to start but it relaxed as we went along.

Bottle from The Bottle Shop and drunk at home. Cloudy hazy dirty looking beige thick lasting head. Slightly dirty hoppy ipa with some tropical fruits. Plenty of body, good fruit, little bit of bitterness on the finish. Good fruits. I rather liked it. Decent condition.
