For us, it’s about believing in curiosity. Because even though it may have killed the cat, before he died, that cat probably had a pretty good time.

355ml bottle. Clear, orangey, deep golden colour with average to huge, thick, frothy to creamy, fairly lasting, moderately lacing, off-white head. Piney, resinous and tropical fruity hoppy aroma, hints of mango and passion fruit. Taste is slightly bitter hoppy, piney, some resin, cautiously tropical fruity. Very well balanced, a suitable introductory West Coast IPA.

Winter Beer Fest, Philly: Pours golden with a white head. Aroma is citrus, pale malts. To me this tasted like a lighter and more attenuated American IPA (rather than English as some people below noted). This is not to say that it was lacking in flavor, but just that the hoppiness was not as strong. The malts were nothing like the darker English malts that go into ESBs and the like.

(bottle, 34.1cl) Clear, amber colour with a medium-sized tanned foamy head. Fruity hoppy and delicately spicy hoppy aroma with notes of citrus, lemon and blackcurrant, backed by mildly bready cara-malt. Moderately bitter and slightly sweet flavour, medium bodied with a moderate carbonation. Slightly bready and caramelly malt upfront with a rising hop profile from the middle part, including fruity and moderately resiny/piney, as well as herbal spicy accents, leading into a dry and quite bitter finish. Likeable but not perfectly balanced. 26.X.14
