330ml bottle. Minimally cloudy, orange golden colour with small to average, frothy, moderately lasting, minimally lacing, white head. Piney and slightly citrusy fruity, hoppy aroma, hints of pineapple, grapefruit, some orange, resin; fruitiness has a light jelly bear touch; pale malty background, very light overtones of liquorice and rubber. Taste is bitter, piney and citrusy fruity hoppy, pale malty basis without residual sweetness, notes of grapefruit, resin, orange zest, a touch of rubber, chalky and papery (cardboard) interludes; minimally chalky and mineral finish. Watery texture, dry palate, fine, mildly prickly carbonation. Pretty much West Coast IPA not English IPA in my view; fairly dry and bitter, sadly a bit papery (especially in the finish) - OK.
