Nose is mouthwateringly hoppy, spicy and fruity....wow. A bit lighter in body than expected, clean and lightly malted, good bitter, hoppy edge that stays well on the long lasting finish.A quality brew.

| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Jul 2, 2009 Bottle from Tesco. Gold with a slight haze and generous white head. Hoppy aroma at once both flowery and slightly citrus. Hoppy grapefruit flavours are nicely balanced sweet maltiness. Light enough palate to drink on a hot summer’s day. Pretty decent bottled IPA but not quite up there with the American trailblazers. rosenbergh (1165), Helsinki, Finland

Looks pretty good, great head, good colour and nice bubbles coming up. Taste is a little watery however, with some dry hops notes and grains. Good mouthfeel. A good refreshing beer for a warm day. azlondon (697), Fribourg, Switzerland

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Mar 6, 2005 Bottle supplied by Maeib (thanks!). Fragrant, citrus hops, with a smidge of pine resin. Light and fluffy, especially on the finish, where the flavour peters out slightly, and there is more of a malt presence. Still a tasty and sweet beer, which is a good product from the I of M. Something approaching an IPA in the US sense of the term, and probably ends up being akin to an APA. Enjoyable for sure. rlgk (3395), Skövde, Sweden
