Bottle from Cornelius. Hazy amber body with a thin white head that slowly fades. Light lacing. Aroma of orange, fig rolls and biscuit. Flavour of grass and bright citrus notes - grapefruit, lemon, lime and orange - with a biscuity malt character to provide balance. Medium body with an oily texture. Soft fizz. A hoppy, fruity IPA. Very nice indeed.

Bottle from Great Grog. It pours clear gold with a thick white head. The nose is. The taste is biscuit, doughy, orange peel, apricot, brioche and earth. The taste is crisp, orange, sherbet, grapefruit, light alcohol (but nowhere near 11+%), passion fruit, oily hop and light spice with a dry finish. Medium body and moderate carbonation. It won me around after a while. Crisp and fruity, but I’m dubious of the abv....

Bottle from Cornelius, Edinburgh. It pours clear mahogany brown with a decent yellow-white head. The nose is brown bread, pine, varnish, resin, peach and orange sherbet. The bitter, rye bread, pine, resin, light spice, chewy malt and light alcohol warmth with a dry finish. Medium body and moderate carbonation. Well crafted stuff. Balanced and quaffable.

The taste is bitter, roasted malt, coffee, mild spice, earth, dark fruits, cola, light smoke, some acidity and spice with a dry finish. Medium+ body and average carbonation. Interesting and quaffable. Plenty going on. Nice.

Bottle as (Very) Special Imperial Pale Ale, bottle #280 @7%. It pours cloudy deep orange with a small white head. The nose is earth, bready,muffin, grain, biscuit, light spice and orange. The taste is bitter, citric, boozy, chewy malt, blood orange, lemon peel, earth, resin and marmalade with a dry, citric finish. Medium+ body, prickly carbonation and chewy mouth-feel. Not the cleanest beer out there. Unrefined, but not unenjoyable. OK.
