An intersting brew. Little scary at first glance (could've have sworn something was floating in it), but ended up enjoying it. Sweet citrus on the nose and palate balanced by light hoppiness. Color is a little wierd (cloudy) by maybe that's what they're going for

Not bad, with a bland appearance and head that belies its flavor. Not bad but not great either. Decent citrus notes with some bitterness.

A amber color beer, with a short-lasting head. Has a fruity flavor and a rather bitter finish.

Cask Conditioned at The Red Lion, Cropredy, Oxon. Orange amber colouer with bubbly head. Probably Wychwoods best beer, and definitely better in the cask, it is a smooth fruity, grainy beer with, at last, a zingy orange citrus hoppy note,

"Fiercely Independant" was what the bottle(pint 9oz) told me, and I happaly agree. Never much a fan of pale ales, the first few sips agreed w/ this prejustice, but the more I sipped... the more my mind changed. Short lasting head atop of an original orangish tinned ale. The paleness of this beer is smoothed by a very slight citrus addition. Second glass had nice lacing. Fuck your 2.85 rating! This is a good beer. Don't always believe the masses ...

This was just a great beer. A perfect strong ale in my opinion. Perfectly balanced, a nice hop profile that is perfectly complimented by a very strong and complex malt backbone. A bit of a amberish, to orange color, with a tiny little head, but leaves with some nice residual lacing. I just cannot get over how good this tasted. Finish is slightly bitter and disapointing, but does not take away from the overall score of the beer.

Light amber in color. Hoppy and Malty, but well balanced and pleasantly fruity. Great flavor. This beer is great. Lots of carbonation. Nice head retention. One of my favorites. A very good English style Ipa.

Head is initially average sized, frothy, off-white, mostly lasting. Body is hazy light amber. Aroma is lightly malty (grain, cookie), lightly hoppy (flowers), with light notes of peach, orange, and diacetyl. Flavor is moderately sweet, moderately acidic, lightly bitter. Finish is lightly sweet, moderately acidic, moderately bitter, unclean. Light to medium body, watery texture, lively carbonation.
