@ brewery canteen. Hazy light gold. Winey, slightly floral aroma. The florals come through like in a good honey. Bitter taste - lean with minimal malts. Spicy, floral honeyed hops. This really works, the hops with this malt character.

Slightly hazy light copper. Earthy, grapefruity big hop aroma. Earthy with very rich bitterness. Almost a bit too much - this is a burly IPA.

Cask at GBBF 2011, Day 2. Pours dark, amber-gold with a bubbly, white head. Big citrus hop aroma, some bits of grapefruit and melon - nice. Flavor is alright, not as good as the nose. Notes of caramel, ripe citrus. Medium bodied with soft carbonation. Light warming finish, light resinous hops, good notes of citrus and pine. Very good beer.

Draft. Hazy orange body with a short, off-white head. Aroma of grain, grapefruit, pine with notes of grass and caramel. The flavor is moderately sweet and lightly to moderately bitter. It finishes lightly to moderately sweet and moderately bitter. Medium body, slightly syrupy texture and lively carbonation. Taste of grain and resin. In fact, too grainy and rough around the edges.

From cask. Pours cloudy orange with a small white head. Aroma is grapefruity and solid hoppy. Sweet, dense malty and smooth fruity. Slowly increasing grapefruity into a smooth hoppy finish.
