SIBA National Champion 2012 - Bottled Beer. An American-inspired IPA; powerfully hopped and packed with tropical fruit aromas and flavours. Big malt content to balance the massive hop character. Not for the fainthearted. Drink it fresh to really capture those hop aromas. Bottle: all year. Cask: a few times a year. Keg: rare special.

Pours amber with a fading head.Nose shows papaya, lychee and mango along with fruit confectionery notes. Pretty vibrant. Some clean malt in the background.Similar flavours, incredibly fruity. There’s a mint note too. Not much in the way of malt, quite clean. The straightforward hop character is a little grassy.Carbonation could be a little higher.

Bottle from Beers of Europe. Poured a hazy light amber with a big frothy white head and a few bubbles. The aroma is huge grassy hop, light caramel. The flavour is medium to strong bitter with a super grass, nettle, light toothpaste hop bitter, dry spice palate and a long bitter finish. Medium bodied with average carbonation. A superb, refreshing, grass bucket IPA.

Bottle. Hazy amber with a fluffy white head. Aroma of grapefruit, pineapple, tinned mandarin, biscuit. Sweet hay, mandarins, biscuit, juicy grapefruit, pineapple, some menthol. Dryish moderately bitter finish. A bit fruit saladish for me.

500ml bottle. Can’t remember where from. Pours hazy gold. Lots of tongue-tingling grapefruit pith and zesty hops. Not mind-blowingly hoppy thus making it rather delicious and quaffable.

Sample from 50 cl. bottle. Slightly hazy, amber-golden colour with a dense, white head. Zesty, fruity aroma with citrus, peach, caramel malts, floral and herbal hops. Taste is bitter. Medium body with a creamy texture. Lasting, bitter finish with a good amount of caramel malts. Nice IPA.
