330ml can. Minimally cloudy, orangey, deep golden to amber colour with average, frothy, fairly lasting, minimally lacing, white head. Slightly weak, citrusy and piney hoppy aroma, hints of lemon, lemon tea, caramel malty background. Taste is initially slightly citrusy and grassy hoppy, rapidly transforming into mineral and metallic; moreover quite watery.

33cl bottle at the brewery on 19th Nov 2016. Ruby hue to the dark brown body, beige head. Decent aroma and taste: Chocolate and coffee esters to the fore, some vanilla joins them in the flavour. Nice, smooth palate, slightly oily. Liked it.

33cl can at the brewery on 19th Nov 2016. Not too sure they’ve got this right. Murky, dirty dishwater brown, scummy off-white topping (marmite like sticky deposit in base of can). Label says ’Juice Bomb’, it did have a mixed fruit bowl sort of aroma and taste but more of overripe and rotting berries than a tantalizing selection of fresh fruitiness. Not for me at all: just about managed to finish it.

33cl can at the brewery on 19th Nov 2016. Golden with a weak white head. Just another citrusy flavoured hop centric IPA: it was fine but I am fed up with this type of beer, scored objectively.

Half-pint, keg at the brewery on 19th Nov 2016. Hazy golden pour, white head. Orange like aroma and taste, not pithy though: semi-sweet initially before becoming more bitter and acidic in the finish: liked it.

Cask pint on 18th Nov 2016 in The Paxton (West Norwood) and a keg half-pint at the brewery on 19th Nov 2016. Both golden, clear pours with white heads: keg version a bit more carbonated as you’d expect. Floral nose with a tropical fruit leaning, citrus flavoured with both grapefruit and pineapple to the fore. Liked it in both forms.

Can. Hazy gold beer, tidy cream colour head. Palate is airy, semi dry and has reasonable fine carbonation. Light pale malts, a little dry and mildly sweet. Light pine. Bitterish orange, some pith and peel. Touch of spice. Light and fairly dry finish reveals a whisper of something tropical. Not bad.

Canned. Golden colour, small white head. Aroma is zesty, some nectary notes along with mild pine, spruce and some sweet malts as well. Flavour is zesty, some tropical fruits, nice mellow but biting bitterness and some toffee as well. Nice and refreshing with a good balance of the stuff.
