Can to tulip.
Appearance: burnt orange hazy color with a two finger white foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: nice dose of citrusy to grapefruity to grassy and piney hoppiness; earthy zest rides in underneath, some hop oils skate over top of a clean malt base
Flavor: blends in all the prior mentioned aromas quite nicely to lead into a mild aftertaste of grapefruit, pine and citrus zest
Texture: medium bodied; good sipper; nice low carbonation; smooth along my tongue; finishes semi-juicy and hop oily
Overall: I'd say a nicely done NEDIPA worthy of more pours

Can to tulip.
Appearance: semi-bright golden yellow haziness with a two finger white foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some messy lace
Aroma: grapefruity to orangey hoppiness, subtle citrus zest, slight lemon; clean malt base
Flavor: blends all the prior noted aromas together bittersweetly; mild aftertaste of orange pulp and grapefruit pith
Texture: light to medium bodied; nice low carbonation; fairly smooth on my tongue; finishes clean, semi-dry and juicy
Overall: I'd say a nicely done NEIPA worthy of coming back to.

Crowler to snifter.
Appearance: thick black in color with a tan one finger foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some mild concave lace
Aroma: thick fudge-like tones flow over a sweet coffee/espresso-like character; extra cocoa nibs and vanilla round it out
Flavor: moderately sweet then a sweet roasty tone most likely from the espresso follows in nicely; mild aftertaste of sweet chocolatey fudge
Texture: medium to full bodied, good sipper; nice level of carbonation; very smooth along my tongue; finishes with the sweet espresso and fudge
Overall: a very nice imperial stout, great quality, rich and decadent and would very much welcome again on a cold Winter's night

Can to tuip.
Appearance: copper tinged orange color with a sturdy two finger white foamy head which slid off nicely to leave some shy lace
Aroma: some cinnamon, clove, nutmeg, pumpkin pie spice, marshmallow, pie crust and subtle sweet potatoes arrange nicely
Flavor: takes all the prior noted aromas to blend semi-sweet with a touch of sour; mild aftertaste of nutmeg, marshmallow and pie crust
Texture: medium bodied, somewhat of a sipper; low carbonation; semi-smooth; finishes dry with the pie crust, clove and nutmeg
Overall: I like this pastry sour ale and would welcome it again next Autumn.

Can to tulip.
Appearance: murky yellow to almost orange color with a two finger white foamy head, slowly dissipated to leave sliding lace
Aroma: apple cider noted initially, woody/cinnamon kind of spicy character, grassy hop tones
Flavor: cidery twang with woody/cinnamon spicy and semi-bitterness, subtle cidery aftertaste
Texture: medium bodied, lil' bit of a cidery twang preventing this from being sessionable, somewhat dry with the woody/cinnamon tone in the finish
Overall: fun to try, interesting take on a seasonal milkshake IPA, though "milkshake IPA's" may not be a huge style I'm into, I think I could come back to this.

Can from Beer Merchants Tap, Hackney Wick. New brewery and a new region for me. Lightly hazed gold with a white head. Pine up front, lots of ginger, and some pink grapefruit coming through against a mellow malt background. Less bitter than many IPAs. Less aggressive too; slips down very easily and was a great match for my tandoori chicken. Enjoyed it.
gave a cheers!
