50cl bottle pours with a crystal clear deep gold body that has copper hues and supports a tan head of foam. The aroma offers up soft tangelo and tangerine notes as well as a sense of pine hops, floral hops and a light biscuit maltiness. The taste delivers an interesting blend of tangerine citrus candy, a thin juicy cantaloupe and pineapple note right up against bitter pine hops and bitter floral. Toward midway the pine and floral hop near resiny bitterness joins up with thin bready to biscuit like maltiness. This has an interesting contrast of flavors as the candy citrus doesn’t play well with the near resiny bitter notes and maltiness. Still, this delivers a good load of fairly fresh hoppiness when the mood strikes.

Sample at GABF 10/08/2016, thanks to my sis for assistance with note-taking. The beer is a clear dark golden color with a medium thick off-white head that diminishes steadily. Partial rings of lace. Citrus, hops and malt aroma. Medium body with flavors of piney hops, citrus and malt. The finish is moderately bitter with a citrusy hop aftertaste. Pretty good overall.

50cl bottle pours with a crystal clear pure gold body that supports a dirty white head of foam. The aroma offers up clementine, tangerines, some mango, a slice of pineapple and then a bit of spicy sort of earthy hops toward the end of the draw. The taste delivers a nice bite of citrus hop bitterness backed up by a modest degree of mango, tangerine and tangelo juiciness. To midway the citrus hop bitterness ramps up and is then joined by spicy onion dank hop bitterness and some earthy hops. This stays tropical and citrus from front to back with plenty of tasty hop bitterness rimmed thinly by juicier fruity hop notes. Pretty nice IPA.

Bottle from Capitol Beer. Pours dark brown with a beige head. Aroma of mild pine and dark roasted malt. Med + body - foamy carbonation. Flavor is pine, dark chocolaty malt, and enough hop to burn a bit. Works for me.

Cask at Final Gravity. Pours translucent gold with a large white head. Aroma seems citrus. Med body. Flavor is slightly dusty, wheaty, citrus, earthy, possible hint of sour. Calypso? A bit leafy. Finishes dry and pretty hoppy. Bitter enough to please me.
