Botella, thanks for sharing this one Pinball. Unclear orange looking colour, nice medium white head leaving a good lacing. Fruity sweet hoppy woody aroma. Good mouthfeel indeed. The flavour has a very good hoppiness with wood, a pleasant sweetness, fruits, toasty malt and some spice.

Old style IPA from the Brewdog boys.
Malty, sweetness on the nose with a hint of bananas and chocolate. taste is too malty to be a big hoppy IPA but still rather drinkable!

33 cL bottle. Pours hazy dark orange with a small off-white to orange head. Aroma is dry and roasted malty, light spiced hoppy too. Caramelish and mild roasted initial flavour followed by a subtle liqourice hops like note. Crisp bitter and mild spiced. Crisp malty and hoppy flavoured finish, reminds a bit about Mikkellers Vikings Return.

Bottle in the rake. Aroma has an inital kick of chocolate malt + some toffee malts, but a lightly tannic woodyness and floral citrus hoppyness comes in and smoothes it out, some yeasty esters too. Taste is very interesting, toffee malts comes but are washed away quickly by a citrus even verging on plasticy hop character thats then cleaned off with bitterness. The alc is really well hidden here and the carbonation is very soft. I could have easily sat and drank the whole bottle in a matter of minutes, but i was working so had to go sit in the sun.

Bottled.
Hazy gold/ruby beer. Modearate aroma, a whiff of yeast, perhaps. Spicy, the elements blend very well together - shaken, not stirred. Fine crisp bitter zing in the finish. Very drinkable.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Pint at Newcastle Arms. Amber pint with no head. Aroma is very hoppy, bitter and some alcohol. Taste is decent, lots of hops, quite dry and straw/grass flavours, quite earthy and rustic feeling, with a little sweetness to balance the hops. This is quite enjoyable, and I prefer it to the Punk IPA version.

Cask conditioned - gravity dispense Wellington Birmingham A copper coloured beer with a whitish head. Subdued hop notes in the aroma. Nice and full bodied with good alcohol notes but not that thrash of hops I was desiring. Nice fruits and bitterness without any citrus to speak of.
