Commercial Description:
Cask, Occasional;
This is one big beer. Forget the ABV, which is just a by-product of the passion. James and Josh from the Queen's Arms, Corton Denham, and I (hence JJJ) have a shared passion for great beers and were lamenting the lack of true IPAs in the UK. So we decided to brew our own version of heaven. Double IPA was just not good enough - we needed a triple IPA. Triple the gravity, triple the colour, and more than triple the hops. With nearly 700 kg of malt and over 11.5 kg of hops this beer is big in every sense. In fact, it was so big and hoppy that it broke our pump! Deep copper in colour, over the top in aroma and flavour, but somehow still remaining (somewhat) balanced, this beer is not for the faint of heart. And if you don't like hops, don't even think about it. But if you do, dare we say this may be the best beer you'll ever taste. We like it so much that upon racking we decided to make it a permanent part of the range.

Cask Stillage at NWAF The Venue, Miles Platting 22/01/2010 Big hop aroma. Amber coloured hoppy floral and strong in alcohol. A little sweet on the palate initially. Warming and slightly bitter malt finish.

A big, bitter, brutal British barley wine/imperial IPA. Loads of English hops, lots of fruit, tongue-twisting bitterness, earthy, full bodied, belly warming. Only loses out on points because it’s not massively drinkable. Share it, it’s more fun that way.

Enjoyable highly hoppy barleywine to me, very drinkable. Pours light brown with lasting head. Good balanced aromas. Good balance for DIPA style. Worth seeking out, very drinkable.Above average mouthfeel.

Bottle 66 cl. Courtesy of madmitch76. Pours a cloudy opaue amber with a rough off-white head. Fat and juicy hop aroma. Quite full-bodied, sweetish caramel and overripe fruit accents. Distinctly hoppy finish. 271109

Cask - The Bull, Horton Kirby. Dark amber in colour with a fine, off-white head, moderately long in duration and a thick, oily glass coating. So rich and full of characters. Resiny, grapefruit hop aromas with notes of tea, caramel, nut and a real earthy kick on the nose. Grapefruit flavours combine with a dry nuttiness, with toffee and thick, sweet malts before finally being cut through by crisp spicy, fruity hops on the finish. Thick and coating on the palate, medium to full in body with slight carbonation and dry, lasting finish. Warming and boozy, the alcohol’s there but not obtrusively so - great on a chilly autumn day.

Draught at The Gallows Bird, Espoo, Finland.
Dark reddish brown colour with no head. Dark hoppy aroma with dried fruits and brown sugar. Flavour is dark dry hoppy with brown sugar and burned malt. Long-lasting dry hoppiness.

Dark hazy orange brown color, steady off-white head. Sticky, piney hoppy, yeasty aroma. Glueish hoppy, some pine flavors, sweetish notes. Quite sticky mouthfeel. Almost American, not very English IPA.

una bella Rossa sormontata da un bel cappello di schiuma compatta! al palato risulta luppolatissima ma lascia un buon sapore leggermente dolciastro. sicuramente non è il genere di birra che fa per me,risulta molto estrema,ma almeno una volta bisogna assaggiarla!!!!
