I’m always keen to try the big beers out there. Found in tap in Soho in London, pricey for a half pint but whatchagunnadew. Has a good pineapple grapefruit aroma, a small head and foggy orange body. Flavour is strong fruity sour hops with malt hints, well balanced, abv nowhere to be found. Dry finish and nice and oily. This is a good, big satisfying double IPA.

Can at home in London - picked up at Kris Wines. Pours clear gold, lightly effervescent, with a foamy, white head. Some rindy citrus in the nose, flinty minerals, pale grains. Light sweet flavour with dominant ashy, flinty qualities, some rindy biterness, husky grains. Light bodied with average carbonation. Lightly astringent in the finish, with more harsh minerality, lemon peel, grain husk, ash. This one seems to have really gotten away from them.

Chelmsford Summer Beer Fest. Cask. Almost clear gold beer, good bubbly pale cream colour head. Palate is smooth, fairly dry and has reasonable fine carbonation. Soft malts, some honeyish sweetness. Resinous citric peel, ripe mango, pine and mild hop spice. Smooth finish. There is some drying alcohol but no real heat here, drinks pretty easy for 11.0%

Chelmsford Summer Beer Fest. Cask. Very hazy gold beer, good bubbly pale cream colour head. Palate is light and fairly dry. Reasonable fine carbonation. Thin malts, mildly sweet, not that much wheat character. Orangey hop, some pith and peel, trace of tangerine. Light floral bitterness. Light dry finish. Some decent flavours kicking about here but it’s a bit thin and dry.

Cask at the Castle Tap, Reading. A hazy amber pour with a ring of white head; lots of mango and melon aroma; and a tart melon taste well supported with a rye-like grainy body; followed by some grapefruit, and a crisp off-dry grape finish. Really refreshing.

Can shared in London - many thanks to Fergus. Pours mostly clear yellow with a creamy, white head. A little pithy citrus in the nose, minerals, lemon rind. Light sweet flavour with more dry, flinty minerals, bitter grass and citrus rind. Light bodied with fine to average carbonation. Clean finish, pretty dry, with further flinty minerality, rindy citrus. Basic but not bad.
