Cask (gravity dispense) at the GBBF 2008. ABV was said to be 6.5%. Deep golden colour, no head. Very nice aroma of distinctly fruity hops, notes of blackcurrants. Distinctly hoppy flavour with an assertive bitterness, notes of pine / resin and some grapefruit. Good beer, but I’d like even more fruitiness in the flavour.

On tap at the brewpub. It was described as a New England-style IPA.
Pouring orange with a large, off-white head with excellent retention and moderate lacing, this is a good-looking beer. The nose is very good too, starting off quite like ripe oranges and flowers, but as it warms up, turning into a really huge pine-fest. This isn't a resiny pine (pinesol?) character, more like a perfumey pine character (if that makes sense). The palate opens with a big pine character, mildly green and quite perfume-like. Along with the pine, there's some floral characteristics too, and a light spiciness, probably from the intense pine. A light caramel sweetness is present too. With a light body and moderate carbonation, this beer finishes dry, pine-like and hoppy. Solid stuff. The drinkability is hampered by the intense pine character, though.

A bright, clear amber color with a respectable off-white head and very decent lacing. The aroma is similarly clear with grapefruit bread and a slight hint of caramel. The flavor brings classic citrus hops and more grain bread undercurrents. Extremely drinkable and refreshingly carbonated with a light bodied feel. Very agreeable, a true session taste sensation!
