12 oz single.
Pour is a very average looking, slightly hazed, dark orange with a fair degree of haze. The head is a decent froth with some density and a good spotty covering and collar. Produces some decent lace.
Mild, simple hop profile in the nose which carries through to the taste. A malt profile that is quite large as well, which will probably upset some lovers of American IPA’s. The balance is there, it’s simple and it’s, well…balanced! Imagine that! In that respect it is rather like its, superior, English origin. some noticeable fruit, notably peach and lemongrass. Smooth and drinkable.
Very tasty and probably a disappointment to many lovers of American IPA’s. Of course, I enjoyed it very much!
