Cask at Artillery Arms, Ramsgate: Pale yellow coloured with a white head. Fruit, malt and hops with the creaminess I’ve come to expect from Sharp’s. Really good, not what I’d call and IPA though.

Oct 23, 2008 Cask at BH, Pori. Hazy golden, creamy lacing pale head. Sweet passion fruit, mango aroma, slight nuttiness. Balanced, sweet malty flavor, mild exotic fruity hops, very easy. Light bodied, low carbonation. A nice session ale, it’s even got slight IPA -like tones.

Oct 17, 2008 Cask, £1.65 a pint night at The Crown, Nuneaton. At last! A beer with some condition I’m actually enjoying. Dead caramel aroma with a hint of hop mustiness. Mellow tropical fruit hop hints and tired almond, vanilla-accented malty smoothness, clean pale malt nibbles of peanut. Not especially hoppy or anything like a true IPA, of course. Silky and a bit dead but slips down nicely enough.

Oct 7, 2008 Thirst quenching, summer drinking reminded me of tangerines. Not great body. Cask it is ok. Bottle is a bit watery.

Sep 2, 2008 Cask, served at a perfect drinking temperature at the brewery’s bar, GBBF. Clear, golden body. Grass-hoppy smell flavoured with citrus fruits and a crisp, bitter ending. Watery texture ( 09.08.2008)
