May 6, 2006 Bottle, 500ml. An amber-coloured pour with an average diminishing head. Aromas of fruity hops and sweet toffee. Taste of citrus, pear and sweet caramel with a hoppy slightly bitter finish. Light carbonation. Very nice.

Apr 4, 2006 gold with a good lasting frothy white head, malty aroma and a citrussy bitter taste and an excellent hoppy finish, unexpected but an excellent beer, very easy to drink and one to try again

Jan 20, 2006 Updated: Aug 1, 2006Re-rating: New bottle advetising RATEBEER.COM! Anyway aroma gives some floral kind of dustyness. Taste is increadibly normal, the caramel pale malts in the base are not balanced enough by the hops by far, double the hop content is needed. Very disapointed here compaired with the first time i had it. This isnt bottle conditioned anymore i noticed.

Jan 19, 2006 Golden colour with a large white head. A little malt in the aroma. A sweet, delicate taste of fruit: pears, peaches, grapefruit and some citric sourness. The onset of the medium bitterness is just right, as is the gentle fizziness.

Jan 4, 2006 Bottle. Nose is fresh, hoppy and bright with some soft fruit. Pale gold with a firm white head. Flavour is intense - starts gently with some sweet malt, which quickly develops into a big, fat, full, bitter mouth filler. Notes of gentle fruits slip in - citrus, maybe some strawberries. The hops resonate well at the end without overpowering, leaving you refreshed, with thirst quenched, and wanting more. A very well-realised IPA(?).

Nov 30, 2005 Bottle (from Asda BBE Apr 06). PEachy citric hop aromas with just a light touch of malt. Lots of hoppy flavours perhaps with some fennely spice. I would prefer just a touch more bitterness to go with the full hoppy aroma but pretty good overall.

Nov 23, 2005 Bottle. Amber with a big white head, leaving lacing. Aroma is a pleasant mix of citric, somewhat spicy hoppiness and maltiness. Roasted malt flavours, initially sweet, with some fruitiness, balanced by good bitterness. Very pleasant indeed.
