Dec 31, 2009 [bottle]
Sweet toffee and orange/citrus aroma with some spicy melanoidins. Clear amber covered by a bubbly, off-white blanket. Sweet toffee/caramel flavour with not a small amount of UK hops and notes of peanuts. Medium bitterness and slight tang of elevated alcohol contents. Also a little salty. Medium body, moderate carbonation, slight bitter finish.

Dec 26, 2009 Bottle from Wine and Cheese Place in Clayton. Pours a clear gold-copper color with a tiny white head that leaves only a little film on the beer. Aroma of hops, malts, citrus, and metallic notes. The flavor also had a metallic quality, possibly from preservatives, that distracted from an otherwise decent, simple hops-malt-citrus IPA. Light-medium bodied, with a light hoppy finish.

Nov 14, 2009 Bottle, 50cl. Pours a clear amber beer with an offwhite head. The aroma is hops (East Kent Goldings). The flavor follows the nose. The palate is bitter. Overall a good beer with english hops.

Nov 7, 2009 Off white head. Deep amber-copper colour. Aroma is moderately malty, a bit weak, with caramel, dried fruits and light hoppy notes. Flavor is moderately malty with caramel, prunes and light vanilla tones, ending in a bitter, slightly dry finish. Light to medium bodied.

Nov 2, 2009 Green bottle: Celery and grassy hops fight through some skunk on the nose. Hazy golden, thick white head, nice lacing, streams of carbonation. Skunked celery flavor, beginning to end. 5.5% ABV tastes more like 8.5%. Thin mouthfeel. Unique and not all that bad if it wasn’t for the skunkiness.

Oct 29, 2009 Very good. Strong flavor. Nice and hoppy. Color is faded brown - not impressive. But overall, an excellent beer.

Oct 26, 2009 Hmmmm, I didn’t enjoy this. Hops are weak, both in aroma and flavor. Boring.

Oct 23, 2009 i like my IPA’s to have a bit of hop kick to them or impart a citrus or piney or something. This one is blah. The hops are just plain vanilla. More a pale ale to me.
