Wow, bitter back end. sleepylopes (264), New York, USA Jul 20, 2008 on cask, as much as I have come to enjoy cask beer IPA needs to be a touch colder than this especial on a hot day. Sweet floral aroma and taste that finish soapy and a touch bitter. No carb but good mouthfeal. Oakes (6793), Miami Beach, Florida, USA Jul 1, 2008 Hazy dark straw/amber colour. Melony aroma with yuzu, kumquat and pale malt. Smooth palate, medium bitterness w/ a grapefruity character on the back of the tongue. Sweet pale malt taste with melons and orangey citrus notes.
