440ml can. Pours hazy orange with a large frothy white head. Blood orange dominates the aroma with light floral notes. Taste is citrusy, blood orange, resin, hop spice, light malt, bitter finish. Medium bodied, soft carbonation. Not sure I'd class as a DIPA at 7.4% but it's a decent IPA whatever classification.

Can. Cloudy gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Smooth palate, mildly dry, reasonable fine carbonation. Light malts bring a pretty mild sweetness. A little hop spice. Orange peel. Light dry finish brings a trace of fresher orange. It's tidy but its taste profile is fairly simple.

440ml can @ monthly tasting, Chez Sophie Nov 18. Thanks Mike for this. Pours misty gold, frothy white head. Big dank pine hop aroma. Crisp hoppy taste, prickly citrus, grapefruit.. certainly not skipping on the hops and a completely different beer to draft earlier in the year. Very good APA. [Jan 19th 2018] Half Keg @ Station. Pours a hazy gold, no head. Aroma of soft pale malt. Taste presents low carb, soft malt, minimal "zingy" hops, a bit 'casky' with soft malt and not a lot else going on. Sessionable I guess.
