The impressive blend of hop varieties provides aromas of grapefruit, orange and resin, leading to generous, juicy fruit and resinous notes on the palate, balanced by an underlying sweet malt character.

Cask at the Caley Picture House. Pours clear amber with a thin off-white head. Aromas of resinous hops and pine. Strong herbal vibe. Taste is more of the same. Bitter finish. Oily.

Cask at The George, Croydon. It pours clear deep amber - brown with a decent off-white head. The aroma is sweet, sticky, cola cubes, candy, candied orange peel and Dandelion & Burdock. The taste is soft, bitter - sweet, cola, candy, gummy bear, pretty juicy, sweet orange, resin, leather and wood with a drying finish. Medium body and soft carbonation. Not a classic IPA by any measure, but fun stuff anyhow.

Cask handpull at The County Hotel Ashford JDW. Very deep amber colour lasting white head. Peppery hoppy aroma. Quite fruity flavour. Some ok malt and hop flavour. Some fruity bitterness on the finish. I rather liked it. Good fruit. Hedgerow.
