Bottle. Beer Central, Sheffield. Bit of a gusher. Hazy orange. Loads of yeasty lumps. Big, open, foamy, off white head. Orange toffee. Orange zest. Orange pith. Some oily hop. Sweet, malty background. Taste is dry, and heavy, pithy bitter. Oily palate. Too much carbonation. Finishes long, dry, punchy bitter. Does what it sets out to do. Not sure it all comes together, though.

On cask at Cloisters. Appearance - golden amber with a decent head. Nose - dominated by orange and hop resin herbiness. Almost hemp. Taste - earthy and grassy maybe spicy too. Something root vegetable. Also of course some citrus. Orange this time. Palate - medium bodied with a big tangy texture and a long dry but balanced finish. Overall - it’s a little gnarly but it’s certainly interesting and it grows as you take on its challenge.

Keg at CASC. Hazy amber/brown body with a thin white head. Great lacing. Aroma of lemon, digestives and stewed tea. Flavour of sweet wood, caramel and orange. Medium body with an oily texture. Soft fizz. Sweet and fruity.

Bottle split at the Bottle Shop during my 40th bash, thanks to LKS, 11/10/14. Lightly hazed golden with a moderate off white covering. Nose is citric pith, hops, light pee, spice, grass. Taste comprises mineral vibes, astringent bitterness, spice, herbal leanings, citric pith, bitter orange. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close. So so.

Bottle thanks to Leighton. It pours clear golden with a thick off-white head. The nose is soft, doughy, cereal, stone fruits, brioche, lemon meringue and light veg. The taste is smooth, doughy, citrus peel, creamy, straw, grass, lemon, grapefruit and a touch of spice with a dry finish. Medium body and moderate carbonation. OK, but a not blown away. Perhaps a touch old?

Bottle from The Beerhive. Hazy golden body with yeast flecks floating around. Thick off-white head. Excellent lacing. Aroma of orange and sweet pink grapefruit. Flavour of orange marmalade and bitter blood orange. The alcohol is well hidden. Medium body with an oily mouthfeel. Light fizz. An excellent IPA that lives up to its name.
