Tap at Waterloo Tap. Hazy - slightly opaque also - with a thin foamy white head. Aroma has low key tropical fruit. Flavourwise - and may not be benefitting from being.served so cold - it has tangy stone fruit and citrus. Juicy with a dry sour bite. Underlying slightly damp malts. Light-medium bodied. Slick. Soft-fizzy carbonation. Long dry slightly astringent finish. Pretty good HSIPA akchewly.

Cask at The Crown, Eastbourne. Literally like drinking liquid toffee. Aroma was just soo much like it. Sure it's very sweet but you knew that. It's great!
