The color is incredibly nice, warm amber and the head is huge and creamy. The aroma is lovely, aromatic and fruity hoppy and the flavour has light notes of caramel, lots of aromatic hops, fruity citrus, mostly grapefruit, light hints of resin and a nice bitterness, that develops slightly dry in the long finish! A really nice IPA!! 2449

Two finger slightly off white head and a amber color. Head goes away before I could really look at it for too long and doesn’t really leave a good lacing. Flowery, fruity aroma as usual. Taste is of pretty piney hops, with a little fruity finish that is nice and refreshing. Pine is pretty much the main flavor here. Bitterness abounds wonderfully. Pretty good beer for number 350.

Bottle from Beers Of Europe Wonderfully aromatic light amber coloured beer that poured with a nice clarity and good medium white bubbly head. Super floral aroma, tasted bitter but with more restraint than anticipated and there was even some peachy/apricot flavours coursing through this beer, slipped down a treat and was my beer of the evening from the three Flying Dog Beers I had.

Not very strong but still drinkable. Body a little thin and could definitely use more hops in the aroma but pretty refreshing overall.

Aroma: sweet, fresh malt; flowery, lemon balm, citrusy hops, vaguely musty.
copper, fiery orange. Foam tinted towards the colour of the body.
Flavour: bitter, chemical, thin flavour. Flowery bitterness. Pretty dry and fresh. Too weak.
Palate: typically hoppy character, frissy and slimy
