Yeastie Boys' Gunnamatta utilises judicious amounts of Earl Grey Blue Flower tea to generate an intoxicating floral and citrus aroma with the quenching dry finish of an ice tea. A truly unique new world India Pale Ale with a decidedly old world twist.

Not brewed by Brewdog, but UK brewed so I'm sticking it here. 330ml can. Pours dark orange with a medium head. Aroma is sweet with lemon earl grey tea. Taste has earl grey tea to start. More tea and caramel on the finish. Lemon on the aftertaste.

Can from Tesco in Worthing. Its okay but a bit odd. Doesn't taste a great deal of early grey but then again I never would have thought of putting beer and early grey together. Tastes very floral.

Frothy white head stayed on a hazy dark orange body. Zesty fruity aroma. Medium bodied, highly carbonated with clean finish. Grapefruit, sweet citrus, tropical fruits & herbal tastes. Very nice

Can. Clear golden body with a thin white head. Lively carbonation. Faint lacing. Aroma of grapefruit flower petals. Flavour of Earl Grey tea and marmalade. Thin to medium body with an oily texture. Soft fizz. Juicy and tangy. So much better than the horrible New Zealand brewed version I had three years ago.

Bottle from Cornelius. Hazy golden body with a thin white head. No visible carbonation. Faint lacing. Powerful aroma - shower gel, green tea and lavendar. Unusual. Flavour of... deodorant sprayed straight in the gob. Medium body with an oily texture. Soft fizz. I like strongly flavoured beers, but this is far too intense. As a subtle addition, bergamot and Earl Grey Blue Flower tea could work really nicely, but in this it is incredibly cloying. I could only drink about a quarter of the bottle.

Appearance is amber, slight cloudiness, a one-finger foamy off-white head. Aroma- bergamot, floral hops, tea, hints of orange and nectarine. Taste- floral hops, orange, pineapple traces, juicy fruit, Earl Grey bergamot runs throughout, hop resin, lingering floral finish. Nicely balanced.
