Bottle (from Ales by Mail). Murky ambery brown colour with a big foamy off-white head, which leaves some lace. Aroma is grains, some bread, mild toffee and some nutty tones. Flavour is floral, some nutty, mild bready, toffeeish and some mild wooden tones. Not very IPAish (even for a British style IPA it's very malty). Still enjoyable as a beer though.

Keg draught at the brewery tap, Herne Hill. Light gold and clear with an uneven white head and lots of lacing. Candy sugar prominent in the scent, with notes of sweetened citrus peel. No surprise that this is a sweet beer, with enough hoppy kickback to give it character. Apricot, melon and even some banana in the aftertaste. Light and slightly watery body, soft carbonation. A lovely pale, if that little bit derivative.
