Aug 21, 2007 750ml bottle. Lightly fruity, citric and sweet aroma, some very light suggestions of yeast detected, overall slight in effect but fairly well-balanced, perhaps some light cedary notes as it warms a bit. Hazy medium golden color with a lasting, foamy, uneven head. Flavor profile begins with a touch of spicy bitterness, becoming sweeter and fruitier throughout, touches of bready dough and toast with honey combined with some herbal lemon tones, finishing on a semi-dry note, showing a refreshing quality, again nicely balanced and with a burst of juicy, leafy hop flavor right at the end and lingering orange character. Creamy and smooth on the palate, some pleasant crispness late, and with a medium body. Really pretty nice.

Mar 31, 2006 I don’t think many English brewers actually brew IPA’s as much as ESB’s & Bitters these days. Even though IPA’s have been embraced by USA brewers its refreshing to see a UK brewer producing one. Meantime IPA was a mellower IPA than its US cousins, with cutrus aroma and mild bittering.

Dec 29, 2005 Pleasant auroma and beautiful pour. Sweet and fruity, with a bit of a bitter aftertaste. Oh well, it comes in a nice bottle that will work perfect for the homemade wine.
