The brewers’ choice. Euphorically brewed with five different types of malt and three different American hops added in four hop additions, this is a gourmet craft beer palate bomb. If you love I.P.A., beer or Scotland get your chops around this prince of pale ales.

Bottle thanks to cgarvieuk. Appearance - deep amber to red. Fluffy white head. Nose - orange and red fruits. A touch vinous. Toffee at the back. Taste - caramel but mostly red fruits. Some resin. Palate - close to medium bodied, creamy with some crunch on the finish. Overall - not a typical ipa but not bad at all. More like an ESB.

330ml bottle from Aldi. Copper colour with a thinnish white head. Bitter fruit aroma that carries through to the taste. Dry finish. Lots of hops, very little malt, but good
