We added both malted and flaked oats so there’s a creamy sweetness on the palate, which works with the natural carbonation and soft water profile to create a smooth and rounded mouthfeel, underpinning and balancing the powerful hop flavours. An assertive bitterness develops and lingers, bringing you back for another sip. It’s an IPA, after all.

Can at home in Hackney - picked up from Cork & Cask. Pours clear honey-gold with a big, frothy white head. Lightly sweet, some tangerine, grapefruit, pine needles, sun-kissed pale malts. Light bodied with active carbonation. Finishes with further citrus, grapefruit, light phenolic notes, Oder are bitterness. Not bad.

Can thanks to Phil. Appearance - murky yellow with a creamy, snow white head. Nose - dank guava and orange. A touch of ripe peach or apricot. Taste - orange, apricot and a light resinous undernote. Palate - more body than expected given the ABV. Balanced bitterness. Overall - well made IPA.
