Keg at the brewery tap, 28/06/14. Clear golden amber with a big old bubbly off white head. Nose is caramel malt, spice, bitter tropicana, grapefruit, pine jacket, sticky mango, very light fart. Taste comprises bitter hops, orange pith, bubblegum, melon, straw, caramal maltings, light booze trace, candyfloss. Medium + body, fine carbonation, sweet close intertwined with hop bitterness. Ok DIPA, malt lead, a little sweet and sticky in places but drinkable none the less.

Draft at the brewery taproom. Pours clear gold, lightly effervescent, with a large, frothy white head. Lots of ripe citrus in the nose, melon, tropical fruits. Medium to big sweet flavor, a little boozy, lots of ripe, juicy and sticky tropical fruits, light piney bitterness. Full bodied with fine to aveage carbonation. Warming, sticky and resinous on the finish, lots of sugary, ripe fruits, orange, grapefruit, melon and papaya, some sweet bready malts, balancing bitter pine. Pretty solid overall. A bit heavy at the beginning but as the palate adjusts the beer becomes quite enjoyable.

Keg at fourpure. It pours clear Amber with a thick whitish head. The nose is bitter-sweet, varnish, earth and citrus peel. The taste is bitter-sweet, boozy, pine, resin, leather, varnish, orange oil/bergamot and light sherbet with a dry finish. Medium body and moderate carbonation. Pretty punchy, yet not too syrupy. Solid.

On tap at the brewery gold clear lasting white head. Burnt toffee flavour. Hoppy fresh hoppy flavour is really good. Bit too clean. Boozy. Good hops not enough malt to back it up. Metallic carbonation. Good fresh hop though
