Commercial Description:
Brewed in the style of a classic India Pale Ale, this intensely hopped ale is a hymn to the virtues of the exclusive Kentish Cobb hop. We add the hops at four different stages of brewing to develop the full spectrum of their taste. The magnificent Cobb rewards with a gentle bitterness and aromatics of depth and distinction. Married with Maris Otter barley from Suffolk this is a majestic ale to enjoy on occasions that call for the very best.

Bottle, 5.6%. Citric hop aroma. Almost clear copper colour. Big stable head. The flavour starts caramelly with a little aromatic hoppiness, and turns bitter in an OK dry way. Nicely balanced.

[Bottle] Amber, somewhat unclear color. Dense head. Aroma is fruit, toffee and a little bit of liquorice. Flavour is more toffee followed by a nice hoppy bitterness.

Bottled. Amber colour, large but brief head. Perfumy hop aroma with notes of peach and melon. Medium sweet with clean mouthfeel and medium body. Light caramelly malt backs the wealth of unsual perfumy hops. Dusty finish with powerful bitterness. A damn fine English IPA!

Clear copper with a large white head. Great retention and lacing. Aroma of yeast, apple, caramel and flowers. The body feels quite thick and creamy, giving flavours of caramel, earthy, flowery hops. Well balanced and perfectly bitter. Smooth hoppy finish, perhaps a little buttery.

Bottle. Orangey amber, hazy with a big offwhite head. Hoppy citrus and apples aroma. Caramel sweetness marry with citrus and fruity hops flavours. Good bitterness. Medium to full body. A great IPA, almost American-style with its potency.

[Bottled] Amber with a large and bubbly head. Sourish aroma with citrus and hops. Fine maltiness with chocolate-notes. Also some vegetables...
