Bottle at Cloisters. Pours bright amber with a reasonable head. The nose has an elegant strawberry note. The taste is of cake mixture and dried fruit. The palate is medium bodied and medium textured with a clean but elegant finish. Overall, a good beer.

Thanks to Joes for sharing. Clear orange color. Don’t smell much hop. Taste suggests an ESB instead of an IPA. Just bitter, not much fruit and hops to me. Low body.

Thanks to user Joes for sharing this bottle with me, countbeer and benzai. The colour is a good IPA colour. The beer is a bit boring and dissappointing though.

Bottled. A hazy amber beer with a thin beige head. The aroma is sweet with notes of dusty hops as well as lighter notes of fruit - especially peaches. The flavor is sweet malty with notes of dust, elderflowers, and hops, leading to a dry and bitter finish. Thanks fonefan for sharing.

Hazy amber with a lasting off-white head. Fruity aroma, especially apricot, with toffee malty notes. Dry and fruity flavour with toffee and biscuit. Rather bitter

Bottle, thx to fonefan. A clear, golden beer with an off-white head. Orange-fruity nose with some caramel. Piney and resiny hop-flavor initially, then followed by a balancing sweetness, leading to a good bitterness. Medium body. Bitter, piney finish. Quite boring considering the brewery saying it’s an IPA, but with good drinkability and a good bitterness. (080823)
