Can from lowcostbeer.com, 1 month past BBE. Light hazy yellow-gold, big white foamy head, nice retention, some lacing. Aroma and taste of soft wheat malts, passionfruit, some citrus zest and spice from the hops, light dryness. Medium bodied, slick, fine carbonation. Its a very solid flavoured IPA, with good use of passionfruit and nice soft malts. Nothing amazing but little to fault.

Bottle thanks to my bro. It pours lightly hazy golden - blonde with a medium fluffy white head. The aroma is sweet - sour, funky, brett, grape must, gooseberry, lemon - lime, hay, damp oak, fizzy sour candy, tangfastics and sourdough bread. The taste is crisp, firmly dry, tart, sour, puckering, tart white grape, gooseberry, lime sherbet, melon, dry oak, vinous, some acidity, dry funk, fruity brett, oak tannin BD some elderflower with a bone dry finish. Medium body and moderate, foamy carbonation. Bright, zingy, fruity and funk. Very nice blend.

Can. Almost clear amber beer, small but bubbly pale tan head. Airy palate, semi dry, reasonable fine carbonation. Light smooth malts, a very agreeable level of light creamy malts and caramel and toffee that are not even thinking about being over sweet. The barrel aging is rather lovely, light smooth barrel induced oak, fair serving of oaky vanilla. Soft rich okay whiskey soaked fruits, rich and plenty ripe. Whisper of marmaladey citrus peel in there. Light and semi dry finish brings a decent alcohol spice, but for an old boozehound like me, there was no alcohol heat. Bit of a slave to its barrel, but that is 100% A - OK with me, nowt wrong with that as long as the barrel is worthy of being central stage. This one, yeah - qualifies with aplomb.
