A 330ml bottle with a BB of June 2017. Picked up recently from B&M. The label describes it as a full-bodied IPA brewed with a blend of 9 hop varieties.

A: Poured into a Duvel tulip. A deep orange hue with moderate carbonation and good clarity. Forms a smallish head of white foam that lasts for a moment or so before subsiding to a patchy surface layer.

S: Aroma of vaguely fruity hops with hints of mild citrus, leafiness, grass/hay, subtle caramel malt, ale yeast, faint grain and a harsh vegetal note in the background. OK but muddled.

T: Tastes of crisp, fruity hops with notes of citrus, mild peel, grass/hay, ale yeast, caramel malt, faint husky grain and stewed hops. Quite dry, followed by a distinct bitterness upon swallowing.

M: Mouthfeel is smooth, tingly and dry, with light carbonation. Decent body; some hop oil action on the palate. Aftertaste of fruity hops, bitter leafiness and ale yeast.

O: A decent drinking beer but nothing stellar. Looks alright, while the aroma and flavour are hoppy but indistinct. Body is OK. Won't blow anyone's socks off but goes down easily enough. Worth sampling.

A 330ml bottle. Pours a slightly cloudy amber colour with a white head. Aromas of caramel, light citrus, grass & sweet malt. Tastes of caramel, light citrus, grass & sweet malt as well as hints of flora. Aftertaste is mildly bitter. Overall nice enough without setting the place on fire, a disappointment, I expected more from Robinson's with a 9 Hop American IPA.

9 Hop IPA, at 6% abv.

Look: Almost none head at all. Like a white ring. Gold, hazy coluor with a lot carbonation

Aroma: Lots of hop going on.Definitely citrusy and piney.

Taste: Spicy and hoppy. Balanced bitterness with some citrus and sweet aftertaste, kinda like chocolate or biscuit.

A balanced, nice beer. I would definitely have it again, but not something outstanding.

Light amber in colour with a white head.

It's nice and earthy with a burned toast and biscuit backbone. Fairly bitter. Zingy lemon in the aftertaste. I'd have said it was more English. I love the toasty / biscuity backbone over the citrusy hops.

Pours clear amber into a glass from a bottle. The offwhite head sits at one-two fingers high, creamy, with good lacing left behind.

Aroma is mildly piney, citrusy, with some floral malts in the back of the nose. The flavour is rather soapy, with creamy grass, some pithy grapefruit, and toffee malts. A hop bitterness underlies the beer but it never really presents itself fully.

Mouthfeel is light-medium bodied with some carbonation; a little oily.

Quite basic really, nothing really stands out as hoppy with this beer, rather it feels a bit artificially hoppy if anything. Quite easy drinking but nothing I would go back to.

Bottled
Pours an amber coloured body with surface white multi sized bubbled head
When I opened the bottle all I smelt was carbolic soap but now it's in a snifter I am picking up a little hop, maybe citra
Soapy and sweet
Fizzy & thin
Would make an okay UK pale ale but U.S IPA? No freaking way
