Bottle from Cotteridge Wines; cloudy amber pour with frothy off white head, phenolic aroma, tastes a bit artificial not at all balanced there’s some bitterness and some metallic, won’t stand out in what is already an excellent London brewing scene.

Bottle shared at Dadsgiving, from ABM (I think), 24/11/13. Hazed orange amber with a moderate off white covering. Nose is ladies armpit after a moderate cycle ride, bitter orange, light hop notes, perfume trace. Taste comprises earthy hops, orange pith, mandarin, steraw. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, dry grassy finish with subtle hop bitterness. Ok stuff but not a patch on other IPA’s coming out of the smoke these days!

Bottle from Sourced Market St Pancras and drunk at home. Hazy amber colour with a thick beige head. Quite an attractive big hoppy aroma. Big pink grapefruit. Juicy. Big good hops, good bitterness but still reasonably well balanced. My kinda big huge IPA that just puts a smile on your face. Nice and fresh too.

Bottle from Sourced Market St Pancras and drunk at home. Hazy ruby ber with lasting beige head. Resiny sweetish hoppy aroma. Now this I do like. If it was a touch more hoppy I’d love it. I like this sweet strawberry jam malt flavour. Sweetish jammy malty beer, the kind of beer I think someone like SilkTork would like. Little hop on the finish. Funny, I’d have this down as a mild. Decent beer.

Bottle from Sourced Market St Pancras and drunk at home. Hazy amber with lasting white head. Some citrus hops on the aroma. Decent enough American hop led pale ale. Some fruit salad flavours. Some bitterness, but mostly a soft finish. Yep, decent pale ale. Quite tasty, a little muddiness, could be a little cleaner, but ok.

Bottle at home from the launch at Craft Beer Co Brixton. Murky caramel copper pour with a thin lasting greyish cream head. Aroma is lots of hot fussel alcohol, caramel and berry with some twigs and orange. Flavour is better, orange, caramel, light tart hedgerow berries. Some plasticy phenols. Mellow fruity bitterness. Medium sweet finish. Medium body.

Bottle at home picked up at opening night Craft Beer Co Brixton. Orange / amber colour with a thin off white head. Aroma is spicy hop, some grassy notes toffee malt and slight plastic hockey ball. Flavour is biscuit malt, spicy hop, but there is a nail polish alcohol solvent the overrides most of the flavours.. Bitterness is rough grassy light citrus. Bitterness really lingers round at the back of the throat.

Bottle at home from the launch at CBC Brixton. Translucent light hazed orange Colour with a reluctant halo white head. Aroma is nice classic cascade / c- hop light grassy hop with a twist of lemon. Nice clean ferment. Nose has clean bready malt character as well. Flavour follows the aroma is is pretty spot on for an APA. Bit of a light touch on the hops, but i like that. The carbonation is a bit lacking, maybe needs a bit more time or more priming sugar. Finish has a nice lemon twang. Semi dry finish. I enjoyed this. With a few tweaks that could be a really sessionable APA.
