Keg at Six Deg North. It pours haY amber with a medium white head. The aroma is soft, sweet, rich, tinned peach, nectarine, stewed orange, candy and marmalade.The taste is bitter - sweet, brown bread, stewed orange, peach, marmalade, oily, resin, alcohol warmth and some spice with a dry, resinous finish. Medium - full body and fine carbonation. Decent enough old-school malty dipa

Bottle thanks to allmyvinyl. Appearance - deep amber and murky with a nicely proportioned thin head. Nose - toffee and pine. Strawberry laces. Taste - strawberry syrup and sweet malt. Resin too. Palate - close to medium bodied with a creamy syrupy texture through the middle and then a dryish long finish Overall - probably heading towards English Strong Ale in style.

Bottle from Beerhive shared with Ashton McCobb. Pours hazy amber with a thin white head. Aromas of strawberries and cream, resin and caramel. Taste is sweet, syrupy, strawberry jam and resin again. Sweet finish. Not bad for a strong English ale, but far too sweet for a DIPA.

Bottle from The Beerhive. Hazy amber body with a medium white head. Good lacing. Aroma of earth, marmalade and alcohol. Flavour of tinned pears, grass and pine. Medium body with an oily mouthfeel. Very soft fizz. I wanted to love this but I felt that the flavours didn’t quite gel. Not the easiest to drink.

Bottle from Eebria consumed at home sat down the garden, Saturday 11th June 2016 Pours a murky brown colour with a slim white head, not wonderfully attractive but it isn’t being judged on looks. A big beer, a little mushy hop, that build and start to numb the tongue. A little bit minty, thick in the mouth, the citrus and pine resin build. It’s a good beer but carbonation is a little bit light. A7 A3 T7 P5 Ov15 3.7
