Plenty of ripe fruity flavours and its malty, but overall I agree with what Glen says this is let down by its sweetness, thick and rather cloying at times, its sticky but its still not so bad.

Hmmmm, I wanted to like it lots, but it didn’t quite hit the right notes for me, it was particularly sweet and flabby, I like sharpness in an IPA. There is a sweet hop note and a fruity malt. Never mind.
