Clear amber beer, very large and frothy off white head. Good malt base, trace of toffee and a pinch of salt. Pine hops and some faded orange. Are all these Hopshackle IPAs really IPAs - this is yet another that comes over as barleywine and not a great one.

Clear gold beer, tidy white head. Honey malt nose. Softish dry palate. Minerally soft malt, sweetish orange, trace of honey. Turns pretty creamy with a whisper of peach. Finishes soft and dry but with a trailing carbonated sting. Nice beer, needs to warm up from the fridge to get the best of it.

Cloudy amber brown beer. Residual off white head. Toffee malt nose. Semi crisp and semi dry palate. Creamy dark toffee but with a carbonated sucker punch. Very light smoke. The toffee blends in to the subtle sweet orange marmalade. Soft finish, interesting beer. Again miffed at being sold an 18 month old IPA - but this is a decent barleywine!

Bottled Spring 2009!!! Hazy gold amber beer. No real head. Low carbonation. Semi dry palate. Toffee malt, salty caramel. A little dried fruit and brandy. Marmalade orange. Dry finish with a bit of aniseed alcohol. Can’t remember where I got this but it was a cheek selling an 18 month old IPA! Okay as a barleywine.
