Keg @ The Bat, Edinburgh [150713] 3.0%
Pale straw, bubbly white head, clear
Aroma - very zesty fresh lemon, slight tropical, quite pungent, great aroma for abv
Taste - lots of dry lemon zesty hop, some floral frageant notes, bitter fragrant zest, dab of grass, heavy hops for abv, very light watery fruity pale malt background
Palate - Soft carb, thin body, bit watery but fairly oily texture. Finish as main flavour, dry, bitter lemony dry zest, strong bitter fairly long tail, maybe the linger is a tad over bitter
Overall - Really nice citrus, crisp and fresh

Keg at the Cock Tavern - Hackney, London. Pours clear, pale yellow with a creamy white head. Lightly juicy, lemony citrus aroma. Lovely beer, lots of lemon and straw, faint grapefruit. Light bodied with fine to average carbonation. Clean finish, more lemony hops, decent pale malt sweetness. Lovely beer overall. Very drinkable. Best beer from Alpha State so far.

Cock Tavern. Keg. Almost clear gold beer, little white head. Palate is smooth and a little soft. Quite modest carbonation from a keg beer! Semi sweet and thin malt. A little pine and a whisper of something lemon. Finishes dry with some floralness and fine minerals. Pretty drinkable.

Keg at the Earl of Essex - London. Pours perfectly clear gold with a fine, white cream head. Nose has some ripe lemon, faint biscuits and tangerine. Light sweet flavor, lots of mineral quality, some lemon, pale malts, peach. Light bodied with average carbonation. Clean finish but still more minerals, light lemony rind. Decent low ABV sessioner.

Keg at the Old Fountain - London. Pours lightly hazy, deep gold with a small, creamy hed. Lots of dank grapefruit in the nose, some mango and other tropical fruits. Medium to big sweet flavor, lots of rich and juicy grapefruit, mango, bubblegum, some yoghurt, tropical fruits, mild pune and grass. Medium bodied with fine to average carbonation. Sticky, juicy citrus hops to finish, dank and resinous, more tropical fruits and bubblegum, fuher suggestions of yoghurt (perhaps of the cherry variety), grass, light dirt. It’s a really juicy, punchy IPA. Not especially subtle but very drinkable.
