Cans. Deep golden body with a light haze and an off-white head. Steady carbonation. Faint lacing. Aroma of tinned orange and pine resin. Flavour of grapefruit, pine and mandarin. Medium body with a slick, oily mouthfeel. Light fizz. It’s very tangy, slightly distractingly so. A decent DIPA.

Old rating - A 330ml bottle brought back from Scotland by my wife. Pours amber with a white foamy head. Aromas & tastes of caramel, grapefruit & biscuit. Medium carbonation. Really feel the high ABV. Good level of bitter in the finish. Decent DIPA

Bottiglia. Al naso l'aroma rimanda al fruttato. L'intensità olfattiva è normale e l'esistenza olfattiva è sufficiente. Il mantello birroso superiore resiste abbastanza. La grandezza delle bollicine è medio-fine. Il liquido è di consistenza limpida. Il colore è ramato. Il corpo è strutturato. L'amaro è deciso. La forza gustativa è elevata e la permanenza è buona. Il gusto è piacevole. Le sensazioni boccali finali risultano luppolate. Il finale è amarognolo. Il retrogusto è intenso. Al gusto vengono donati toni di miele, crosta di pane, agrumi, pompelmo, arancia, mandarino limone, spezie, resina, pino, mirtillo e ananas.

330ml bottle from Lidl. Light clear amber with moderate sized and well lasting white head. Aroma is caramel malts and orange, some pine. Taste is quite malty with biscuit and caramel notes coming through with citrus, mineral and pine. Alcohol warmth on the way down but not abrasive. Medium bodied, smooth, light cloyingness on the palate. Solid stuff, great value from Lidl.

Bottle from Lidl Supermarket, Todmorden. Hazy amber with a small head. Has a strength, but good fruit found too with a pseudo Belgian styling here.

slightly opalescent dark golden to orange colour, medium sized creamy ecru-ish white head; aroma of marmalade, honeycomb toffee, pine resiny, some grapefruity and caramel notes; well balanced bittersweet taste with orange juicy, grapefruity, some resiny-hoppy and grape-like fruity notes; good one!

Bottled. Golden colour with a small white head. Aroma is caramel, citrus, herbs and mild wooden tones. Flavour is biscuity, bready and caramelly tones along with some citrus, herbs and mild alcohol. A bit watery as for the palate though.

[33cl bottle from Lidl, Crowthorne.] A golden amber pour with a thin white head; aroma of citrus and malt; sweet malty taste with a touch of citrus before a resinous bitterness and well hidden alcohol in the finish. Much better than expected.
