Bottle at Ivy House. It pours hazy golden amber with a medium white head. The nose is earthy, orange, tangerine, grapefruit, cox apple, pissy hops and barnyard. The taste is zesty orange, tangerine, grapefruit, earthy, sherbet, apple and minerals with a dry, citric finish. Medium body and fine carbonation. Rather juicy, tasty and drinkable.

Bottle shared with dEnk. Opaque hazy orange color, medium to full sized white to off - white head. Smell and taste malts, lots of hops, fruityness, some pine and lots of bitterness. Absolutely lovely and amazing. Superb beer! Huge thanks to jmgreenuk for bringing this.

330ml bottle from Ales by Mail

Bottled 20 MAR 2013 - Pours dark orange with a smooth head. Aroma of sweet juicy fruits, hints of grass and malts. Taste is smooth, hoppy and a bit grainy with hints of juicy fruits and malts. Finish is dry, bitter and a bit resinous with hints of grass and dried fruits. Okay pale ale with a bit untypical hop profile.

Bottle from Utobeer drunk at home. Hazy orange amber colour with lasting white head. Good grapefruit aroma. OK pale ale in the mouth. Yes, very drinkable, nice grapefruit and it’s very decent. Definitely floral and a little rose like. Likeable.

16/VI/13 - 33cl bottle @ home - bottled: 19/III/13 (2013-561) Thanks to Nicki and Mike for transporting the bottle!

Slightly clouded dark orange beer, big creamy off-white head, pretty stable, adhesive, leaving a nice lacing in the bottle. Lots of very small sediment floating around in the bottle. Aroma: very fruity, citrus, bit piny, exotic fruit cocktail. MF: ok carbon, medium body. Taste: nice fruity start, pineapple, citrus, grapefruit, passion fruit, soft bitter hops. Aftertaste: little piny, nice dry hoppy ending, fruity flavours. Lovely pale ale, be it American or not.

330ml bottle. Clear amber colour ith average, firm, frothy, half-way lasting, moderately lacing, off-white head. Nice fruity hoppy aroma has notes of tangerine, orange, peach, caramel malty basis. Taste is moderately sweet caramel malty, fruity and slightly bitter hoppy overtones. Sadly about a small scale trickle too sweet, minimally soapy hop finish. Nevertheless nice overall.
