Soft English hops on the nose, orange peel, citrus, sweet floral. Taste is sweet, a nice mild bitterness with a long caramel finish. Mouthfeel is smooth and oily. A nice change of pace from the big American IPAs.

Bottle shared at barbecue, would have been nicer if it was sunny! 9th June 2013, this is an English style IPA, the hops are more subdued, not aromatic, drinkable and fairly enjoyable, a little harsh in places, the alcohol comes through
3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20 aletiosso (42) - São Paulo, BRAZIL - JUN 10, 2013
Cor alaranjada escura, turva, com espuma creme de boa firmação e persistência. No aroma casca de laranja, frutas cítricas, malte e médio para baixo dulçor. No sabor, bastante lúpulo, o que era de se esperar de uma IPA, cítrico, um pouco herbal, com médio para baixo dulçor, e amargor persistente depois do gole. Uma boa representante do estilo.

3.8 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20 Osprey87 (586) - London via, WALES - JUN 1, 2013
Cold 75cl bottle. Clear light orange with decent white head. Bit of caramel in the smell. Taste has quite a lot of caramel, some background floral flavours. Enduring aftertaste. Somewhere in between an IPA and an DIPA in terms of flavour. Nice, easy drinking. Good stuff.

Cutesy mini magnum bottle. Again, consumed under duress due to the Sloth Paradox. Damn you Bert! Pours a photon eating amber. Thin ring of head cling s for dear life to the sides of the glass. Hops are muted in the nose dute to the huge sweet malt onslaught. The film of head diminishes quickly from total coverage to a shape similar to the outline of Tasmania complete with Sarah Island, and then after a few quaffs it looks like Iceland. Club me like a baby seal this beer is tasty! Body is short lived but shaped like a Brontosaurus. (It’s my theory!) Starts off slow gets real big and then ends small and is drawn out but still dangerous for a plant eater. I may not emerge from the basement this afternoon. Should have bought two of these....Damn Slothian paradox.
