Thanks to Fin for this presented to me during the London Bimble which was a fitting tribute to Simon. Hazy amber lasting white head. Citrusy aroma. Some sherbert in the flavour some gooseberry too. Good sharp clean hoppy flavour. Decent.

Bottle courtesy of my dad and via the brewer, Richard? many, many thanks to both. Consumed at home Sunday 23rd February 2014 We had a bottle last night but by that point I wasn’t in the mood for rating but I do recall liking it. This bottle is 43 of 50 Pours yolky colour heading to orange with a nice sticky mid sized white head. Hoppy nose, a little dusty citrussy hops cone through. Soft carbonation, really soft in mouth, citrussy. Good bittersweet tang in mouth drinks far easier than it should at 7.1%. A furry bitterness coats the roof of the mouth some pithiness but sweeter pith a little sweet lemon. Nice juicy IPA and a very good first effort. A6 A4 T7 P4 Ov14 3.6

500ml bottle. Pours hazy light gold with a medium head. Aroma is bready with pineapple and passionfruit. Taste is quite bready with a bitter pineapple finish. A bit too fizzy.
