Bottled. Amber colour with a mediumsized off-white head. Aroma is really fruity and floral hops with some bigtime grassy notes. Flavour is floral and fruity with a big bitterness and some slight yeasty notes. Tasty.

Il gusto al naso ritrova percezioni di luppolo. L’intensità olfattiva è elevata e la persistenza olfattiva è apprezzabile. Il cappello di schiuma a bollicine fini ha una discreta resistenza. L’aspetto del liquido è limpido. La carbonazione è persistente ed insistita. Il colore è ambrato carico. Il corpo è strutturato ma duttile. L’amaro è deciso. L’intensità gustativa è elevata e la persistenza gustativa è buona. Il gusto è godereccio. Le sensazioni boccali finali sono luppolate. Il finale è amarognolo. Il retrogusto è intenso. Il tetto della bocca riporta sentori di miele, resina, fiori, frutta secca e agrumi.

Cloudy orange colour, thick and quite big head for the style, moderately persitent. Aroma is pine and a light pungent spiciness, not bright. Taste has caramel foundation, a bit of a musty feel, notes of pine and pineapple. Bitter (but not dry) aftertaste. Light to medium body, lacks carbonation, musty mouthfeel. Kind of tired and not devoid of flaws. Label says best before 21 sept 2016, if i drink this 5 months before it’s expiring date i would expect it to be still fresh enough

330ml bottle from Ales By Mail. Pours amber gold, light haze, nice white head and lacing. Aromas... Oh dear. Plastic bag. Some citrus lurking beneath, but overwhelmingly plastic. Taste is more of the same, some funkiness too. Dry, burnt rubber, bitter finish. Something?s not right with this.

Bottle at London Beer Lab. Amber with a moderate white head. Biscuit-y malts with pine and grapefruit hops and a moderate bitterness. Not quite crisp or clean enough. Nowt special by today’s standards, the hops are a bit dull if I’m honest.
