Bottle on the train bro. It pours murky deep amber with a medium white head. The nose is stewed orange, guava, dried mango, apricot jam and earth. The taste is bitter, resinous, boozy, chewy malt, orange peel, grapefruit, pepper and marmalade with a dry finish. Medium body and.moderate carbonation. A bit chewy perhaps, but not bad.

IPA? Nope this is Imperial. Very hazy deep amber beer, good cream colour head. Palate is smooth and very slightly viscous. Modest fine carbonation. The malts are sweet but also fairly thin. Hops are smooth pine, mild spice and a little thin marmalade. Smooth finish. It’s a rich DIPA but pretty smooth and drinkable.

On keg at the Bow Bar. Appearance - cloudy orange amber with a nice then head. Nose - mango and papaya. Hint of citrus. Taste - more papaya and a big lime zing on the finish Palate - medium bodied with a creamy yet tangy texture and a long dry tangy finish. Overall - beautiful big beer!

Keg at Cloisters. Hazy golden body with a tight white head. Lively carbonation (always nice to see on a DIPA to help ’lift’ any sweetness). Excellent lacing. Aroma of pineapple, mango and apple. Light peppery finish. Flavour of pine needles, green mango and a spicy finish. Medium body with a sticky mouthfeel. A sensational, fruity DIPA. If this was bottled I’d certainly stock up.
