Bottle at home in London - sourced from the Drinkers’ Paradise. Slow gusher. Pours clear chestnut gold with a billowing, creamy off-white head. The nose holds lightly toasted, crackery malts, orange rind, old pine, hints of caramel. Medium sweet flavour with further crackery character, bitter grass and oily pine, rindy orange, a little marmalade. Medium bodied with lively carbonation. Finishes with light resinous pine, further lightly toasted pale malts, grass, aged citrus fruits. This is kind of an old-school IPA, and it seems a little faded as well. Those factors notwithstanding, it’s OK in some ways.
