Can split at L42, from an IP thanks to Explosive Doge, 05/01/18. Hazed golden orange with a well presented off white cap that retains well.

Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close peppered with juicy hop bitterness. Decent clean drinking IPA.

On tap at Uptown Freehouse. Pours gold and mostly clear. Orange peel, bitter grapefruit, slight soapy lime thing. Real pithy bitterness. Seems a bit stuck between styles.

(On tap) Hazy amber with small white head. Great aroma: pine, white wine, peaches. Medium body with great soft and bright carbonation. Light caramel malt provides nice underpinning for taste. The foretaste has great fruity notes - citrus, pine, white grapes. As this fades gentle caramel fudge sweetness briefly makes an appearance before the hoppy bitterness builds. Great DIPA.

(On tap) Hazy golden with small white head. Great aroma - grapes, pine, citrus. Medium body with big soft mouthfilling carbonation. Nice biscuity light toffee malt provides a great taste backbone. The start has some tropical fruit juice flavours. They fairly quickly get replaced by sweetness and then really good hoppy bitterness. The high alcohol is apparent but nicely so - giving bite and extra apparent sweetness. Great beer.

Bottle sample at a tasting at Lior D's place. Thanks Lior D. Golden. Skunky fruity hops, some sweetish malt, graininess, bitter finish.
