Keg at PP Ocean Beach, 13/11/14. Clear golden with moderate off white edgeing. Nose is light fart, citric peel, bitter orange, straw, pale malt, toasted bread. Taste comprises floral notes, bitter orange, citric pith, tangerine, melon. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with sweet tones and some hop bitterness present. Low end DIPA, just doesn’t have any oomph.

Cask at GBBF 2014 - London. Day 2. Pours black-brown with a tan froth crown. Big and treacly, with rich chocolate malts, some charred wood. Full bodied with fine carbonation. Sticky sweet finish with notes of burnt sugars, strong charred malts, dark fruits. Not bad but a bit heavy duty.

Keg at PP Solana Beach, 14/11/14. Reddish amber with a moderately appointed light beige covering. Nose is sweet caramel, perfume, candied fruit peel, hoppy notes. Taste comprises toasted brown sugar, light tropical fruits, sweet licks, pine, sticky candy. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close. Doesn’t deliver much for the ABV, too sweet, needs more bitterness.

Sample at the Aces & Ales Winter Beer Fest on 01/16/2015. Clear golden color with a medium thin white head that evaporates steadily to an outer ring. Short strings of lacing on the glass. Aroma of fruit, hops and yeast. Medium body with flavors of citrusy hops, sweet malt and earthy yeast. The finish is fruity with a short hoppy aftertaste. Decent overall.
