3.8 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Bottle: Pours a transparent deep copper amber with a spotty-lacing froth of light tan head. Has a nice, fresh assertive piny hoppy nose with nice underlying toasty caramel malty notes. Starts with pretty good fullness for the style with light caramel sweetness well-balanced with fresh floral resiny hop bitterness and flavor before a crisp, smooth finish. Very drinkable and true to style.

12oz glass on tap at Churchkey DC. Pours a reddish, basically transparent amber with a frothy, white head. Nice lacing. Nice hoppy aroma, light caramel, whole grain bread, light candy, C hops. Flavor was well balanced and not at all aggressive, citrus, bread, zingy spices. Medium bodied finish. For a beer that says it’s only 25 IBUs, this had a lot of solid hop flavor and aroma while still being approachable.
4.1 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Bottle. Clear copery amber pour with a creamy beige head that lasts a while and leaves plenty of lacing. Aroma is very hoppy and fruity with notes of passionfruit, orange, grapefruit, peach, apricot and toffee. Flavour has a stronger malt backbone, with more caramel and toffee notes, but otherwise pretty much mirrors the aroma. Mouthfeel is light without being too thin, with moderate carbonation and a long finish that starts out fruity and gradually becomes more bitter. Another great beer from Brewdog, kind of like a cross between an ESB and an IPA, thoroughly enjoyable, easygoing and very sessionable.

4.5 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 19/20
Good beer (understatement). The bright and fresh hop aroma stays in your nose even when you’re breathing out. Resin and citrus, something chewy, the aroma is like the small amount of sodium in Dasani water that never slakes your thirst. The flavor is even more hops, it’s like the roof of my mouth is doing some smelling too. A bitter bite comes and goes very quickly then follows the beer down for a couple seconds while the hop vapors use the opportunity to float upwards and out the nose. I need to get my hands on more of this and try more Brew Dog beer. Yay beer!

Bottle 33cl. Pours a clear reddish amber, with a medium white head and an aroma of sweet and sour fruit, grassy hops and a touch of toffee. The taste is a bit malty with some toffee, synthetic sweetender, grassy hops and some herbs. a medium-long finish sums up this above-average bitter.
