Relatively light bodied, but not too bad for a 3.8% beer. Packed full of hop flavour - quite dry, but loads of grapefruity and piney hops throughout. Not too bitter though.

On tap at Cardinal’s big Brewers’ Night. Golden colour, moderate white head. Lovely aroma of tropical fruits and citrus. Lovely hops in the flavour too, but the malty base is a tad too sweet for my taste, with the typical American crystal malts / orange marmalade character. Still a fine beer, which I’d be happy to sample again.

500 ml bottle, from Ales by Mail, ABV is 5.5%, 77 IBU. Malts are pale, caramalt and Vienna, hops are Columbus, Bramling Cross, First Gold and Galaxy. Golden colour, slightly hazy. Moderate white head. Pleasant hoppy aroma, notes of tropical fruits and citrus, hints of pine. The malty base is slightly sweet, but this is first and foremost a hopdriven ale, with grapefruit, pine needles and resin, also hints of tropical fruits, and a solid bitterness in the finish and aftertaste. This is an IPA in my book.
