An aggressive, full-throttle IPA loaded with citrus, tropical fruit and resinous hop character. Smooth malt backbone, lingering bitterness, and a payload of aroma that locks on and doesn’t let go.

Bottle, 10C. Clear golden amber with an inch of white head that never quite disappears. Aroma of mandarin, candied pineapple, passionfruit, Sweet smelling hayish malt, no honey. Lots of fruit but not sickly or fruit punch -like.Another Feral pale ale that smells great. Oily with moderate carbonation - I wouldn’t have minded just a few more bubbles. Clean, pretty sweet and it certainly feels its full 8%. Mandarins (maybe a bit tinny), little Sth E Asian pineapples (ie the really low acid kind unlike the Oz ones that try to digest your tongue), pine builds up a bit towards the fairly bitter finish. In the end what I liked most about it is that all the parts worked together. [3.7]Can. Seems slightly cleaner, lots of of fruit, fairly dry and bitter at the end. Punchy but remains light. +.1 over the bottle. Good stuff, although I still fail to see the Harry Potter reference.

This has a fantastic velvety palate and a melange of grapefruit, passion fruit, apricot, orange peel and light spice. A ripper.
