Bottle from Bottles of York. Much better than the classic pale ale. Upfront citric floral hops which are well backed up by malt in the body which fades to allow the bitterness to shine in the finish.

Pours a clear orange/gold. Good head that falls fast and leaves a lot of lace. Nose is sweet with a pine tone. Hello hops. Taste is robust from the hops and has a citric edge to it. Flavor stays with you and doesn’t leave your tongue. Feel is carbonated and thick with a slight syrupy edge. Very drinkable if you don’t mind the large hop presence.

Bottled (4,7% ABV). A lightly hazy amber beer with a medium sizes and not much persistent white head. The aroma is rather hoppy, with citric fruits notes and with some caramel malt. The flavour is hoppy, though less bitter than many other American IPAs. Usual notes of grass and grapefruit. Light to medium body, lively carbonation, dry finish with medium to high bitterness. A nice IPA, perhaps less extreme than others, though quite intense.

Dark amber, small head. Earthy aroma -- grassy, woodsy, citrusy. Grapefruit, herbs, spicy on the mouth; lingering finish, nice and hoppy. Close to fantastic.
