On tap at the Alibi. Thin cratered head, off-amber straw colour. Very bit hop start that peters off toward a suggestion of brown sugar at the end. I like Spinnakers’ IPAs and this one is a good addition to the lineup.

Bottled at Stockholm Beer Festival 2007. A hazy golden beer with a thin white head. The aroma is sweet and very peachy with light notes of wheat. The flavor is sweet and very fruity - peaches being most dominant, leading to a dry bitter finish. The body is a bit thin.

Bomber from Brewery Creek: Poured a medium gold with a thin bubbly head. Aroma was herbal hop, apricot and some honey. Clean start, hop forward flavour, nice malt balance. Very drinkable.
