Can. Opus replaces Earnest in this Edition. Hazy orange gold beer with a small pale cream colour head. Smooth palate but has a developing minerally crisp back end. Smooth light malts, a nice light creamy sweetness. The quartet of British hops bring a nice cooling pine into soft but rich citrus that has a whiff of lime. Soft piney mango and some spicy bitterness lurking underneath. Smooth finish. Totally works. I have often wondered why brewers don't turn to English hops to provide a bit of respite from the C hop onslaught and here is the answer. A different hop experience yet still very much a dipa.

Can from Bottles & Books. Murky golden body with a white head. Steady carbonation. Faint lacing. Aroma of orange pith and dried grass. Flavour of tinned orange and menthol. Medium body with a smooth texture. Soft fizz. Pretty restrained (the opposite of the label design) and a very pleasant IPA.

Panda at home, thanks to SHIG, 10/01/21. Moderately hazed orange to yellow with a decent enough white cap. Nose is ripe melon, lime zest, pine resin, mango, grapefruit, mixed tropical fruit esters. Taste comprises grapefruit zest, gentle hop spice, more lime leaf evident, pine resin, weed, trace of coconut, Um Bongo presence, bitter sweet pineapple. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close spiked with a juicy slather of Sabro and light rising boost. Top notch DIPA.
