Had this from a bottle, purchased in Sheffield’s very own dram shop. Vibrant yellow-gold colour with perhaps a slightly too-small and quick head. Quite a vibrant tart aroma, with a flavour that began quite bitter but soon developed into an overwhelmingly pleasant grapefruit. Long-lasting aftertaste, and overall a very pleasant and very drinkable IPA.

Jag har druckit denna vid andra tillfällen tidigare utan att ha recenserat den och jag vill påstå att jag upplevde den bättre då än jag gör nu, tyvärr. Aromen är fullständigt underbar och fruktig, smaken är också hyfsat fruktig men den dör snabbt och upplevs nästan som lite fadd och tunn. Märkligt nog tror jag att den blir lite bättre och framförallt bastantare desto djupare i flaskan jag tittar. Det vör givetvis också tilläggas att efterbeskan är ordentligt bitter och ljuvlig.

Keg at Brewdog. Gold with a white head. Decent hoppy aroma that has a hint of fruit. Flavour is bitter hops but with touches of grapefruit and orange. I think that the bottle version is better than the keg.

Liked the last one, like this one too! Maybe not quite as hoppy. This is my daily drinker.

Desde siempre la preferida, en la inauguraciòn fue el segundo barril a ser pinchado, color amarillo anaranjado de aspecto espeso, increible el contraste de aromas a pomelo del lupolo y a fruta amarilla, en boca es liguermente tostada y fresquisima con sabores iniciales sobretodo a melocoton maduro y de retrogusto amargo persistente citrico, cuerpo lleno con carbonico medio y un finall largo y aromatico. la cerveza de todos los dias a todas las horas

In bottiglia al Gradi Plato di Roma. Colore dorato, schiuma bianca persistente, al naso note agrumate, al palato secca e piena, amaro deciso e persistente, molto beverina. Da comprare a confezioni da sei.

Bottle: Balanced aroma, fruitiness, sweetness and hops. Notes of multivitamin juice and passion fruit. Flavor is light sweet (cough candy), fruity, notes of berries and herbal hops.

Can, from Sainsburys, Scunthorpe. Hazy gold, big fluffy sustained white head and good condition. Big hoppy nose with loads of resin, some cherry fruitiness and even a suggestion of Orval-like hopsack notes. Nicely sweet in the mouth but balanced by a building but restrained hop resin bitterness laced with peppery spiciness, and again i’m tempted to compare it to Orval, finish is long and bitter but never too bitter, with hopsack and a gentle sweet maltiness in a delicate balance.

Bottle from Bierzwerg web shop. Hazy golden color with medium long-lasting white head. aroma of grapefruit, pines, floral hops. Taste, peach, grapefruit, tangerines, mango, pines. Nice long, fruity bitter finish. Nice IPA.

Bottle, possibly from Ogi’s package from the Slovenian Brewdog distributor. Shared with me and heavy obviously. As is every other beer I’ll be rating here today, so I’ll cut it out. Anyway, murky gold body, quite nice, medium thick white head that went away slowly. Kinda "fishy" (but somehow not in a bad way here) herbal/tropical fruit hop nose with a sweetish malty background. Sweetish maltiness balanced out by a nice tropical fruit hopiness, not too bitter (the 45 IBUs don’t surprise me), but nice. Some slightly tangy herbal notes. Actually I’d hoped, but didn’t expect it to be this good. Yay!
