Part of my second Flight at the brewery on 30th Dec 2017. Hazy golden yellow body, white uneven head. Hops all the way here with citrus notes to the fore in both the aroma and taste.

On my second Flight at the brewery on 30th Dec 2017. Golden amber pour, white crown on top. Tropical citrus feel to the brew with grapefruit and oranges being the main aromas and flavours I found. Decent stuff, refreshing and fairly bitter.

Part of my second Flight at the brewery on 30th Dec 2017. Golden body, white, wispy head. Decent hop profile with citrus notes dominating both the nose and taste, some pine and floral action too, getting a bitter towards the end of each sip.

12oz bottle. Filtered copper-orange body. Foamy off-white head. Quite an unappetizing, diesel aroma. I guess this is pretty much 90s IPA. Tastes old and bad to me, but I suppose at one time those syrupy, resinous tones were novel and maybe even desirable. Hairspray, plastic...something off-putting in addition to the bitter hops. I'll get through the bottle, but this is not a beer I would ever recommend or revisit.
