Meet Cannonball’s big brother; we used more malt, more hops and more magical conjuring to crank up the flavour of our explosive IPA ‘Cannonball’. Get your taste buds ready for massive pine and candied orange aromas combined with bitter/sweet grapefruit and mango flavours all complemented by a deeply composed, satisfyingly malty base. Ever wondered what it feels like to be shot out of a cannon? Here’s what it tastes like.

500 ml can, bb 17/11/18.
Amber, medium hazy body, with a big, fluffy, lacing, white head.
Aroma with lots of distinct, zesty and fleshy grapefruit notes, citrus, pine, some tropical fruits, moderate biscuit.
Tastes very lovely, with similar aromas, some more biscuit and pine.
Medium, a bit creamy mouthfeel, with an average carbonation.
Finishes smooth, medium bitter, moderate dry, zesty, citric, piney, a bit sweet, with grapefruit, some tropical fruits, some biscuit.
Very tasty! Lovely, distinct grapefruit notes throughout, supported by a crisp pine spiciness. Greatly balanced, with just enough biscuity malt body and an almost completely hidden alcohol, dangerously quaffable. Beautiful, characterful old-school DIPA.
Score: 8 / 4 / 9 / 4 / 17

Tap at So Good in Rome. Clear orange/golden color, tick orangish foam. Nose: it starts a bit malty, orange, malty becomes more firm. Mouth; strong amberish maltiness, bodied and malty alcohol notes, sweet finish with a lovely hoppy overall and a sharp bitterness.

500mL can, pours a hazy golden orange with medium white head. Aroma is quite dank, with lots of piney, dank hops, light resins, and biscuity malt. Flavour is wonderfully dank, with piney, herbal, pot-like hops, and light biscuity malt. Nicely dank, moderately fruity, and wonderfully hoppy. Excellent beer.

500ml can(s). Slightly cloudy, orangey golden colour with average to huge, thick, creamy, moderately lasting and lacing, white head. Citrusy and tropical fruity, hoppy aroma with grassy, fresh hay addendum, notes of lemon, lime and passion fruit, hints of candie dorange zest, condensed piney flavours form a hoppy basis, a biscuity pale malty layer is fundamental for the entire construct. Taste is piney, citrusy and tropical fruity hoppy with little papery inteferences and a plastic touch, notes of lemon, lime and passion fruit again, a touch of orange zest, candied orange zest; biting bitter finish. Close to the New England interpretation of (I)IPAs, less hazy and juicy, but with the same kind of dry, mineral, cardboard or plastic effect.

Creamy off white head stayed on a hazy sand coloured body. Pine, resin, hop overkill & grapefruit aroma. Medium bodied, smooth, cloying & dry. This is full on hop burn, onion, bitter pithy grapefruit, pine & resin tastes with a boozy finish. Served in a 500ml can, this is a monster!
