Bottle at home, thanks to an IP with Essex Jim, 01/01/13. Pours dark dark amber/chestnut brown with a thin off white head that assumes a frothy bubbleness clinging to the outer circle. Nose carries juicy hops, pine, mango, light grapefruit, subtle background rausch. Taste comprises hops, pine, grapefruit, mango, caramel malts, mineral tones, great blend of smoke, enough to be noticed, enough to remain a well balanced hoppy IPA. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, hoppy bitter finish with a touch of smoke. Great stuff, the Tiny Rebel folks never seem to produce a dud ! Bis meine Straße !

Bottle at home (thanks to Jim Essex for the IPT) 31/12/12. Hazed mid amber with a thin white head that soon clears to the edge. Nose is pale malts, touch of caramel, pine, hops, bitter orange, a little subdued compared to other beers from TR. Taste comprises bitter orange, touch of grapefruit, caramel malt, pine, grass, hops, mineral tones. Medium bodied with fine carbonation, bitterness in the finish. Decent enough APA but not their best work to date!

Draft at Cask Pub and Kitchen. Pouts hazy orange brown with a small off white head. Aroma is massive molasses, caramel, toffee, slightly sickly, cheesy old socks, hops subdued by the sweetness. Flavour is heavy sweet and moderate to heavy bitter. Full bodied with soft carb. Interesting, but a bit much.

Bottle from Cotteridge Wines, Birmingham. Poured a cloudy yellow with a broken white head and some broken lace. The aroma is really rather strong and somewhat overpowering which isn’t such a bad thing. It has an amazing grassy floral hoppy pine needle nose. Its very special. The flavour is bitter floral and hoppy. It’s truly refreshing. A superb beer for today!
