Review and Tasting


Sampled on 31/07/2016

Appearance:

Hazy, deep amber with thin but retentive ivory white head and light lacing.

Aroma:

Bready malt, pine and orange peel.

Taste:

Caramel and brown bready malt, assertive but not overpowering bitter piney hops with some grassy notes, zesty orange and light earthiness.

Aftertaste:

Dry and bready with earthy lightly bitter pine and orange marmalade.

Overall:

Heavy and bready with hop notes that are assertive but perhaps a tad subdued for an IPA.
