3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
75 cl bottle. Unclear amber colour with a huge white head. May a bit too carbonated. Lovely aroma of sweetness, hops and caramel. Also sweet flavour with a nice touch of hops. Very well made and easy to drink.

UPDATED: DEC 13, 2008 <i>2008-12-02, draught at Pig´s Ear Festival 2008, London, 7-4-7-5-15=38</i>
Cloudy amber color. Strange beer: very strong perfumy aroma, like the perfumes in Indian shops, and oranges; then the tangerines and oranges take over, and it gets better. I like the flavor more, with some good malt, medium sweet, and a good hopping with fruity touch &#40;bitter oranges&#41;. Confusingly complex, very good.

Hazy amber color. The aroma has some malt and hop. The flavor has a lot of malt and toffee hop, strong bitterness, well mixed. Strong final. Very good.

75 cl bottle.
What a dissapointment. I like hoppy flavor with fruity notes. Thisone was unbalanced and filled with sour, sour and sour notes. Maybe I just got a bad bottle in the supermarked....or I have to accept new ways to brew IPAs. Time will show. I’ll rerate it the future!!

Come on, guys, this beer is excellent, cannot rate it so low. BUt anyway, it was good to me and others. NOt very American style but good. The orange features are good, very great foam.
3.9 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
(Bottle at GBBF, London, 3 Aug) Colour is amber, hazy, with an off-white head. Nose is fruity with loads of grapefruit and a lovely Cascade hop character. Taste is fruity with grapefruit, apricots, dried fruit, plums and cherries. Long hoppy finish. Very complex and quite brilliant. It seems most of the raters got the same infected batch, give it a new chance when fresh. It’s very nice.
