440ml can. Murky golden, white head. Aroma of ripe tropical fruits, pineapple, mango. Taste is the same, ripe tropical pineapple and mango, orange, guava etc. Medium sweet and medium bodied. Solid DIPA given how it's made, just a tad sweet for my liking.

330ml can. Slightly hazed golden, big off-white head. Aroma ripe citrus, marmalade, grapefruit peel. Taste is very citrusy, orange, grapefruit, marmalade, caramel/toffee malt, pine, assertive bitterness. Medium bodied. Seriously impressive for how it was apparently made. Reused hops really give this much flavour?

[33cl can from Beer52.] A hazy amber pour with a thick white head; grapefruit aroma; quite oily in the mouth with a grapefruit taste and a touch of pine resin; then a satisfying finish with more grapefruit and a little warmth. A pleasant IPA.

On tap at BrewDog Cardiff, pours a cloudy peachy golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out plenty of peach pith, lactose, and lacto. Flavour is very sweet and juicy, with lots of peach juice, a little lacto still present. Useless fruited kettle sour that is more juice than sour ale/beer. Uninteresting.
