Bottle courtesy of John at Johnny Off L. in Rome Italy. Pours semi clear golden, tick creamy white head which stays there forever. Nose: fruity, peach and apricot. Mouth: balanced bitterness, a bit astringent but juicy with a decent bitterness. Balanced. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Bottle from O’Brien’s, Athlone [071115]
Amber, clear, frothy bubbly white head, light lacing, head dissipates
Aroma of tropical fruits, mango, sweet citrus fruits, soft grapefruit, hint of orange, good clear fruity aroma
Taste of bitter zest, grapefruit zest, sweet caramel malt background, very hoppy, getting a bit of that butter biscuit malt I didn’t like in another one of their beers, but it did go away eventually, lots of flavour in this
Palate - Soft carb, medium body, rich texture, considerably bitter, sweet background. Finish is fairly dry, long bitter zest linger
Overall - Maybe a tad over stuffed and I’m not sure about the malt background, but plenty of hops in this and it’s robust. Quite decent.

Bottle from O’Brien’s, Athlone [161015]
Golden, clear, thin bubbly white head
Aroma of some tropical fruits, soft sweet fruits, dab of buttery caramel
Taste of caramel, some tropical fruit, soft grapefruit, some bitter citrus hops, but some butter biscuit. Not that keen on the malt base.
Palate - Medium carb, tad fizzy, medium body, soft sweet. Finish is quite drying, very bitter spicy zest linger, bit rough around the edges
Overall - Seemed a bit flawed to me. Will re-rate this in the future.

Draught at Against the grain. Cloudy gold with a thin head, excellent lacing. Aroma is a bag of tropical fruit. Flavor is bitter, bitter and then some. Dries the mouth, fruit, sugary sour finish. Too big for me.... But if you like intense this is the one for you.
