Assertive bitterness from the New World hops with subtle fruits esters from the Belgian yeast, all beautifully balanced with the addition of malted rye.

12oz can at Guilford Arms pours a murky burnt orange with some fluffy white head. Nose has coriander seeds, some straw, dried citrus, candy. Flavor comes together a little better, light pepper and spice, some candy, orange, lightly vinous, some yeast, a little papaya. Finishes spritzy. Interesting.

Big white head doesnβt last. Clear coppery body. Fruity funky candy aroma with plastic notes. Dryish fruity plastic taste with spicy notes. Mid-bodied. Mild, soft mouthfeel. Dry fruity herbal plastic aftertaste with floral spicy notes. Itβs not bad, but the plastic kind of ruins it. (0.5l bottle, odd bins, Edinburgh.)

330ml can from trade with AshtonMccobb. Many thanks! Pours lightly hazy amber with an off-white head. Fresh fruity nose. Taste is bright, hoppy with a bristling bitterness. Expected more of a yeast element, the bitterness taking the reigns a fair bit but itβs nice.

Can at Southern, Edinburgh, Saturday 19th March 2016 in the company of Dad and Barry. Mid amber with a film of islands once the head settled (which was quite quickly). Yeast is assertive but not too aggressive, nicely bitter, fruity with a good furry, hoppy tongue rub, like it. A7 A3 T7 P4 Ov14 3.5
