On tap at Blacksalt Tavern, pours a hazy copper amber with a small off-white head. Aroma brings out dull earthy hops, subdued pine, and bready malt. Flavour is pretty laid back for an IPA, with musty, earthy hops, some pine, and bready malt. West coast-style but missing oomph. Decent enough.

Muddy earthy malts. Clear copper with a nice white head. Earthy hops, caramel and a long finish.

On tap at Kowloon Taproom. Pours amber. Toffee, orange, some big yeasty esters and a dry toast thing with an unpleasant astringent finish. Quite thin. Not good.

Bottle bought in Hong Kong in November 2017. Amber with a medium white head. Rather soft with hops, citrus, grass and malt. The body was medium as was the bitterness.

Bottle at The Beer Stall, Singapore. Poured a clear copper colour with a frothy white head. The aroma is malt, resin woody hop. The flavour is moderate bitter with a crisp, dry skunky malt, metallic resin hop bitter palate. Medium bodied with average carbonation. A little one dimensional. No fruit and not much going on other than the resin hops. Not a classic.
