440ml can direct from the brewery. Look - slightly hazy dark gold/light amber, small white head, average retention. Ok. Nose - juicy tropical and citrus aroma with orange, passionfruit and pineapple notes. Some malts and pine resin. Taste - crisp tropical fruits, then a citrus zesty tang and pine leading to a punchy bitterness but there is a sweetness throughout which offsets. Palate - medium body with minor chewiness but leaning towards the refreshing side for a 7.1%, soft carbonation. A well balanced juicy refreshing IPA with a warming ABV. I really like this.
