Thanks Victor.
The appearance was a burnt orange to amber color, almost brown. Finger’s worth of white foamy head dissipated at a nice pace. Mild stringy lace.
The aroma balances nicely between a dry piney and citrusy (bitter portion) hops to some toffee and caramel malty tones.
The flavor leans crisp malty sweet with a quick bitter hoppiness rolling in for the balance. Sly semi-sweet malty aftertaste rubbing against some hops to lead on into the finish.
On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium on the body with a nice sessionability about it. Carbonation feels good for what it is. Mild smoothness.
Overall, pretty good American styled pale ale that I could have again.

Probably the sweetest IPA I’ve ever drunk. Aromas of honey, watermelon, nougat and sherbet overpower the slight citrusy notes. The honey combines with a taste of sour mandarin to give it an odd flavour. Not a favourite.

Just hazy gold with a modest white head that lasts OK. Very gentle wheaty aroma with a little vague citrus and pepper. Thinking bland quaffer, but it improves - lovely soft mouthfeel with medium carbonation. Not very sweet with hay and oranges, nice dry pepper and clove finish with lowish bitterness. Is there some rye in this too? Refreshing, will go back to this in summer.

Bottle. Amber with an off-white head. Aroma of grapefruit, plums, caramel, some pepper. And so it tastes. Sweet with strong bitterness, under-ripe plums. Didn’t much care for this.
