Cask. Hazy amber. Lots of hop nose w some syrupy malt. Sweet hop syrup. Tastes a bit strong but that’s drinking in England for you - 5% is big beer here.

Bottle from Cotteridge Wines, Birmingham. Poured a hazy light amber with a frothy white head. The aroma is grassy hop and citrus fruit. The flavour is medium bitter with an earthy barnyard hop bitter palate and a short bitter finish. Medium bodied with average carbonation. A rather unusual APA.

330ml bottle. Hazy amber colour with average to huge, thick, frothy to creamy, fully lasting, moderately lacing, off-white head. Citrusy and minimally piney hop aroma, notes of grapefruit, a touch of resin and sweat. Taste is bitter hoppy, minimally tart, citrusy, fruity notes of grapefruit and blood orange, slightly sweaty resinous, solid malty backbone. Close to an DIPA in some aspects (resinous and sweaty notes).
