Clear dark golden with a big white head. Malty caramel aroma with hops. Sweet taste with a bittersweet finish. Not really refined but it is a decent macro imperial IPA.

50cl can. Pours copies dark gold, with fine white foam. Aroma is strongly spiced, recalling ginger. Body and carbonation are average. Taste is weirdly sweet, though not excessive. Final is fairly dry.

Can from B&M Bargains, Todmorden. Paler golden coloured with a small head. Has a light citrus aroma and taste and is fairly easy drinking for its near 5% strength.

Can from B&M Bargains, Todmorden. Golden with a fair carbonation and a head. Lovely smoothish Belgian yeasts are a staple here, it's just a shame it's from a can on this occasion as it does feel it would taste slightly better out of a glass receptacle.

Clear golden towards orange. Full head initially, but soon diminishing. Honey aroma. Malty taste with metallic notes and some sharp bitterness at the end.
