Bottle shared in London - thanks to Fergus. Pours clear, deep gold with a creamy topping. The aroma holds dried grains, vague citrus peel, leaves. Light sweet flavour with crispy leaves, hay, dried bread, more nearly. Light bodied with average carbonation. Lightly drying finish, more leaves, crispy and little toasted grains. A little bland. So so.

Bottle at home in Northern Ireland. Picked up from Crumlin Tesco. A mostly clear caramel orange coloured pour with a greyish thin head. Aroma is sweet burnt toffee and caramel, leafy hop, pine burnt orange. Palate is medium sweet, highish frothy carbonation burnt toffee. Flavour is composed of sweet sticky malts, burnt toffee, orange and woody pine hop. Mediocre old school ipa.

Bottle from Tesco, Enniskillen [120516]
Dark amber, hazy, frothy white head
Aroma of toffee malts, soft citrus fruits
Taste of toffee malts, some bitter hops, very soft citrus, sugary toffee like Werther’s Originals
Palate - Medium carb can body, heavy sweet, quite rich. Finish of lingering toffee caramel, then a bit dry bitter at the end
Overall - Too much toffee, not a pale ale. No brewing errors but the recipe needs improvement

Aroma of soft sweet malt, light hay, very dull
Taste of light malts, soft hay malts, bit grassy, no depth, dull
Palate Soft carb, medium light body. Finish quite dry, rapid.
Overall - Too little hops to be an IPA. Poor example of the style.

Hazed golden color with a fine white head. Quite malt dominated beer. One dimensional. Medium body, and an average to soft carbonation. Tad sweet and a moderate bitterness.
