Keg at BrewDog Leicester. IPA-ish mid-gold, hazy witb a lovely creamy white head. Peach tea, applesauce, light tropical fruit in the sweetly enticing aroma. Taste is more complex, with an initial candied fruit sweetness giving way to a lightly acidic hop character. For a strong IPA, it is fairly inconsequential, but still a nice drop.

Very hazy golden coloured body with a two to three centimetre tall just off-white head that stays afloat nicely. Aroma of grass, hay, light resin and a touch of very mild citrus fruits, all with some alcohol noticeable, but fairly mild in aroma, especially for the style. Medium to Full-bodied; Strong rich malt and grainy flavours at first that show some yeast and more wheatie components, but the alcohol and light astringency ramp up and then lead into the lighter, but still noticeable hop characteristics which veer from floral to grassy and then finish with the faintest bit of citrus. Aftertaste shows the herbs and dry malts more than anything, but some softer fruit also comes through along with some pepper at the very end. Overall, an interesting amalgamation between a plain-jane East Coast IPA mixed with an Imperial IPA and then with an unfiltered and 'theoretically' resinous and very hop bite that never develop, and leave the finish very dry and not exciting. Overall, a nice beer with a lot of pungencies at first that settles nicely and is robust throughout. I sampled this sixteen ounce, pint-sized can, purchased from Liqour Outlet in Boonton, New Jersey on 23-June-2019 for US$3,99 sampled this at home in Washington on 01-October-2019.

16 oz can from HalfTime. Yelliw pour, initial bug foamy head eventually fades down to thin coat. Bready aroma with a touch of lemon. Taste is light and sweet, more light lemon. Finishes clean.

Can from BrewDog Brum. First brewery from Vermont. Rather solid DIPA. Hoppy, bit juicy, good amount of citrus feel. I like.

Brewdog Stoke Newington. Keg. Hazy gold beer, decent pale cream colour head. Smooth palate, decent fine minerally carbonation. Airy malts, a light creamy sweetness. Piney hops. Modest orangey citrus. Mild spice. Light finish. Clean and drinkable but really not remarkable in any way.

Keg at BD Bingoham, 02/08/19. Hazed orange amber with an off white head. Nose is bitter orange, grapefruit, toasted malts, light pine, mango. Taste comprises orange, pine, ripe melon, grapefruit, grass. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close spiked with lightly aggressive hop bitterness. Ok old skool leaning DIPA ... Drinkable but not setting my beer world alight !

Can from BrewDog. It pours hazy golden - orange with a decent foamy white head. The aroma is fresh, nice pine character, sticky, resin, lemon peel, grapefruit, green, weedy and light sherbet. The taste crisp, dry, plenty of fresh hoppage, hop sting, pine needles, resin, sticky, floral, green, dank, lemon peel, grapefruit, touch of underlying sweetness and nips of alcohol with a drying, green finish. Medium body and moderate carbonation. Fresh, green and piney. I rather like it. Flavour profile is more heady topper than the more recent sweet/juicy NEIPA styles. Dangerously drinkable.
