BREWMUSKCLES (1062), New Jersey, USA Sep 23, 2008 bit of a bland aroma of broomstraw with a pear like beer wiff toward the end. i found a grape red,green and purple barely sweet with that broomstraw type flavor of heavyish malt wrapped around a hop heads satisfactory level of spicy hop and citrus hop. the finish is sharp and lasting with a hint of pineapple. the brew looks like natural style apple juice with a dishwater type white head and a bit slick in appearance as well. quite demonstrative and all things considered interestingly different. berkshirejohn (1771), Bracknell, Berkshire, England Sep 21, 2008 <i>330ml bottle from Tesco, Alfreton/</i> Amber with a ring of white head; bitter marmalade aroma; tangy bitter citrus flavour with orange and grapefruit predominating; warming and intensely bitter finish. Very smooth and mellow, an excellent easy-drinking well-balanced IPA. danielcurtis81 (879), San Diego, California, USA Sep 20, 2008 SDFOB-2008. Bottle. Very light in color, haylike.

Plenty of frothy white head on the pour. Smell is fruity and slight citrus. Decent amount of light malt in the nose. Taste is hoppy, but balance fairly well with the malt. Not a bruiser, but a easy drinking IPA. Very refreshinig and a different take on an IPA. Flavor profile unlike any IPA I’ve had. However, at the price point it’s sold at here in the states I don’t think there will be a future purchase. dj (418), Gloucestershire, England Sep 13, 2008 Bottle, 330ml. A hazy golden colour with no head. Aroma is hoppy with some malt and honeycomb. Taste is quite bitter, with slightly herbal hops, soft citrus, honey and a touch of malt. No carbonation. Overall, a well balanced and enjoyable brew. JonMoore (1561), Loughborough, Leicestershire, England Sep 12, 2008 Bottle. Golden with 0.5cm white head. Grapefruit and grass and quite complex hoppy aroma. Lots of hops in the taste, very nice bitterness, spicey, very dry. Excellent IPA.
