Can at home, from Grumpy Goat, 15th June 18. Pours a hazy, murky orange colour with a white head that dissipates. Aroma is musky, malty, citrus, pine. Taste is spiky pine, citrus, grapefruit, bitter linger, a good malt balance. It's dry not overly sweet. Pretty good DIPA.

Can picked up from Cotteridge Wines, Cotteridge, Birmingham. consumed at Fire in the Mountain Festival, Saturday 2nd June 2018 Difficult to be exacting on colour owing to green plastic glass that is festooned with a Northern Rock Patrons Project label. However I am fairly confident that it is likely to be grubby yellowy in colour with a white head. A little bit of pine resin on the nose, probably from the Chinook not sure what the Mosaic brings to the party in terms of the aroma, maybe a little tropical edge? Fruity in the mouth a little more polished than the Load Polly APA I had earlier. Citrus and tropical flavours combine in the mouth, it's very nice. A7 A4 T7 P4 Ov14 3.6

Can picked up from Cotteridge Wines, Cotteridge, Birmingham. consumed at Fire in the Mountain Festival, nr Aberystwyth, Wales, Saturday 2nd June 2018 Difficult to be exacting on colour owing to green plastic glass that is festooned with a Northern Rock Patrons Project label. This is aggressively hoppy, I like it but it's really quite harsh and sort of takes it aways some of the drinkability. Fruit still shows but hops do barge in. Ok. A7 A4 T7 P3 Ov13 3.5

Can picked up from Cotteridge Wines, Cotteridge, Birmingham. consumed at Fire in the Mountain Festival, nr Aberystwyth, Wales, Friday 1st June 2018 Difficult to be exacting on colour owing to green plastic glass that is festooned with a Northern Rock Patrons Project label, but looking down into the it, it looks murky yellow with a slim white head. A pretty good bitterness for the style, juicy with a little rough edge which I really like, it's fruity and smooth but also a little edgy and more interesting for the style. Very good.

Can split at CBC St Giles, thanks to Fergus, 30/05/18. Hazed golden orange with a decent off white covering. Nose is bitter orange, grassy, melon, citric tinged straw, biscuit. Taste comprises orange pith, grassy bite, lemon rind, faint pine dusting, toasted grains, light bread. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close splashed with balanced juicy hop bitterness. Ok IPA but had expected a touch more as my first beer from these guys, based upon praise I'd read from others.
