33cl bottle from Bitter Virtue, Southampton. Amber with a creamy head and lively carbonation; citrusy hop aroma; thick and oily in the mouth with an immediate burst of piney hops, then become soft and buttery but with a deep herbal hoppy bitterness; really fresh tasting and refreshing, and not overpowering; leaving a dry, warming, finish.

BBE OCT 2013 - Pours clear orange with a foamy white head. Aroma of floral hops, grass, fruits, hints of malts. Taste is fruity with notes of floral hops, grass and some malty notes. Finish is bitter and quite hoppy with floral hops. Okay, quite tasty IPA.

Bottle from Cotteridge Wines; pours clear amber, frothy white head, fresh grapefruit hop aroma, the taste didn’t live up to the aroma bit to bitter for my palette. Although this citrus hop comes through well. Very good IPA.

Cask at CASK with Sarah. Pours a clear gold with a white head that dissipates to the edges and laces slightly. Aroma has a nice fresh pine hop note with a bit of grass and a bread backbone. Flavor has pine up front that mellows to grass with a hint of citrus and a grain backbone.

Craft. Almost clear gold beer, tidy white head. Palate is light and crispy and semi dry. Quite a sweet malt base, repressed vanilla and flowers. Nice fresh citrus provides good balance - orange marmalade and grapefruit. Finishes semi dry with mild minerals. Really like the contrast of the sweet base and the fresh bitterish hops. Hugely drinkable. Great stuff!
