This fresh, full flavour natural beer is our tribute to the classic IPAs of yester-year. The post modern twist is the addition of amazing fruity hops giving an explosion of tropical fruit flavours and a sharp bitter finish.

superflyguy (410) - Leeds, West Yorkshire, ENGLAND - OCT 28, 2011
lovely. pours a deeeep gold. with tight white head. bags of hop aroma in the nose, dominated by grapefruit. plenty of grapefruit in the mouth too, along with a pinch of passion fruit. and a strange sensation of eating the head of a match! good bitter finish and oily with a soft carbonation keg at Old Bell, Harrogate

Bel colore dorato nel bicchiere, con schiuma generosa. Al naso soprattutto agrumi e resina. In bocca è una ipa splendida, equilibrata, secca e pulita. Vorrei da bere...

evabeer (21) - NETHERLANDS - OCT 17, 2011
Licht troebel amber bier met een flinke witte schuimkraag. Je ruikt eerst tropisch fruit, veel passievrucht, grapefruit, meloen en citrus. De smaak is een beetje zoet, flink bitter met veel passievrucht, citrus en grapefruit. Gekocht bij de AH.

YoungGunn (20) - Dublin, IRELAND - OCT 16, 2011
This beer tells you to go balls deep or go home, and it challenges you to taste it, which is nice, I think it’s abrasive look and label and a bit of flavour to proceedings. A nice novelty when you show up to a house party with it and friends might read it, with the label basically slates macro brewing. But to the business. Aroma just burst from the bottle, deep citrus and an almost tropical punch smell, also a fragrant perfumey, flowery smell, maybe the harsher hop coming through. The taste is very, very deep citrus, like you just licked the business side of an orange peel. It’s complemented nicely by a bitterish follow through and after taste, heralding from the whole fact it’s an ale. The body is nice and thick, and shocked me as I expected it to be rather sweet and water upon smelling. This is sessionable enough, and I strongly advise anyone that might like the citrus notes of a wheat beer and the bitterness of an ale to go out and pick up a bottle or two, a nice drink!

Draught @ Gastropub Tuulensuu, Tampere.
Originally rated on 20110811.
Pours clear golden colour with small head. Aroma of hoppy fruits, grass, light malt and citrus. Flavour of crisp fruits, malts, dry hay and some toffee. Very well balanced brew with nice hoppy presence.
