| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Oct 7, 2007 Draft at FT George. Full pint fort a closer to our visit. Bigger hop nose than from the small sample, orange copper with thin head but no noticeable lacing. Orange, tangerine citrus nose. Medium to light body offering a bit of sweetness and ride for the big hop finish. Some pine mixes in the hops at the finish. No alcohol present and body seems thin for a double IPA.

| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 17/20 | Oct 17, 2009 A Mes rate. Cask at GBBF. Bright orange gold. Not much going on in the head department. Amazing aroma. So much hoppy goodness. So fruity is it that there is almost some black currant hints coming through. The flavour is just a massive hit of hop juice. Fruity as hell, loads of pine and spruce, lychee, a good spicy hit giving an almost ginger burn and a full hoppy punch in the finish. Great stuff. harrisoni (6871), Ashford, Kent, England
