Smootha as you like. Pours a beautiful amber colour with a healthy head. More of an English IPA without the powerful pine flavours it is still very drinkable

Bottle, thanks to eyedrinkale for sharing. Amber / ruby pour. Aroma is biscuity malt, some citrus hops and earthy hops. The flavor is the same, decent IPA, but again the bottle might be a little old.

Bottle from EDA. Lots of hops, stewy tomato in the aroma. More tomato in the taste, some hops, thin body. Hop forward but not quite quenching or refreshing. Not too bad, but the vegetal flavor gets in the way a bit.

330mL bottle. Hazy orange/amber. NO head. Musty pine aroma. Flavor is a clean watery malt. Slight bitterness, very balanced. Except for the label this beer is very forgettable.

thanks TimE! / stamped 0706 / subtle, nice aroma; hazy orange-copper body, orange highlight, small off-white head; similar to the House IPA; resiny, orange hoppy bite over a calm, subtle sweetness; a little sticky, not that spicy; altogether creamy, smooth, and tasty! for an IPA--in this case, west coast meets far east--is is f’ing great!
