Hazy amber beer with a tidy pale cream coloured head. Smooth palate but with prickly carbonation. Sweet caramel malt. Sweet piney hops with a touch of red berries. Good malt cream develops before a semi dry finish. Very mild hop spice and bitter linger. A sweet but enjoyable dipa.

Bottle - Caramel malts and light grapefruit. Cloudy orange with a rich white head. Huge toffee sweetness that mellows the bitterness and alcohol as described. Some fruity and orange hops, but it is masked by the sweetness. This is out of balance on the sweet side.
