A caramel copper pour with a foamy light beige head. Minty, grape, tropical fruit hop bouquet. Fairly light bodied, silky mouthfeel with an earthy, minty & marihuana flavor plus a mildly piney bitterness towards the end. The nose & the flavor donโt really match but the overall package is quite solid.

Craft Clerkenwell. Bottle thanks to big Dave. Chars! Hazy amber beer, good pale cream coloured head. Palate is light and very airy. Light sweetish malt. Little lactose. Mild hop skunk and spice and then tangerine led tropical fruits. Softish airy finish. Mildly bitter fruity linger. Good stuff.

Bottle. Lovely nose. Great grassy hops, floral, slightly mineral, great grass. Some tobacco. Glowing orange-amber. Dirty grassy, earthy flavor. Very bitter. Silky and full but light. A bit too bitter I would say, but nice.

Bottle thanks to Dave. It pours deep orange-amber with a medium yellow-white head. The nose is caramel, candy, toast, tropical fruits, five alive fruit juice, orange Chewits and a slight metallic twang. The taste is toasty,wood, orange peel, brown bread, earth, watery and metal. Lightish body and moderate carbonation. Nice on the nose, but a touch thin on the palate. Decent enough.

Bottle split at Craft Clerko, big thanks to Dave Wingman Willis, 27/01/14. Lightly hazed orange amber with a good sized off white head. Nose is skunky hops, Mary Jane Wanna notes - oh so hoibal, caramel malt, bitter orange. Taste comprises earthy hops, bitter orange, light spice, lemon rind, caramel. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, grassy bitterness in the closure. Ok IPA but a few notches from dem higher up draws!

Pours very dark copper with ruby hints and a large lasting head.Nose shows nutty malt, bready hints, spicy and floral hops. Lovely malt character.More sweet nutty malt as a flavours before spicy hops enter followed by an assertive bitterness. Slightly metallic.Carbonation is too high.

Draft at the birthday bash. Cloudy maroon brown color, small tan head. Aroma of lightly spiced and subtle orange peel on a background of cocoa. Taste is fruity cocoa and a bit of coffee. The orange has faded a bit, but is still present.
