6.8/10 โ€” Appearance 7 Aroma 6.5 Flavor 6.5 Texture 7 Overall 7
The aroma is typically English. Plenty of typically British hops, a few notes of caramel, a good amount of malt, grassy notes, dried fruit, a touch of oak, and vanilla. Dark brown in colour, with a generous head, and a dark ecru. The flavour is malty, with burnt bread crust, toffee, moderately hoppy, and dried fruit, but with a hint of plum. The bitterness is distinct, slightly grassy, โ€‹โ€‹earthy, and typically British. Pleasant, the quintessence of a British strong ale.

This beer has an opalescent, golden colour with a long-lasting, creamy head. The aroma is delicately grassy, โ€‹โ€‹piney, slightly citrusy, with a hint of caramel. The taste is similar, with delicate malty notes adorned with resin, zesty notes, and a touch of grass. The bitterness is also delicate, piney with grapefruit albedo accents. Full-bodied, with medium carbonation and a creamy mouthfeel. Compared to the version from a few years ago, it has lost its edge. Another Double IPA for barbecue...

Cloudy, golden with a thin, creamy head. Faint lacing. Aroma of exotic fruit salad, with a hint of pine. Similar taste. Late pine and grapefruit albedo bitterness. Medium body with a velvety texture. Delicate effervescence. Definitely a sessionable experience, delicate, as if made for summer or a barbecue, and therefore dangerous.

A hazy yellow colour with a large white head that quickly collapses. Aromas of malt, tropical fruit salad, and orange zest. The taste is practically the same, with malt, oatmeal, citrus, and passion fruit prominence, and a delicate, zesty finish. The alcohol is nicely hidden. One of those DIPAs that's not bad, but not great either, but expectations are higher.
