L - dark copper, hazy, huge head initially despite gentle pour

S - honey, dust, mango

T - malty, sweet, tangerine, molasses, orange pith, some lingering bitterness on the finish though overall not very bitter

F - fairly thick, lots of carbonation, creamy

O - more malty and less hoppy than I prefer but at just 5.6% this is surprisingly satisfying

A 650ml bottle with a best before date of 9th January 2016, poured into a Spiegelau IPA glass.

Appearance: It poured a slightly hazy copper amber colour with a two finger cream coloured head that dissipated slowly leaving lots of stringy lacing.

Aroma: Citrusy orange and lemon, bready malts, grapefruit. There’s also some pine and flowery hops.

Taste: Taste is malty, bready, light caramel and sweet-ish before the hops kick in and gives a lasting bitterness.

Mouthfeel: Medium bodied with light crisp carbonation.

Overall: More malty and less hoppy than I expected considering its triple hopped. A little disappointing but GP have a lot of other good offerings and for IPAs, I prefer their Garagista IPA.

Pours a dark red colour, whispy generous head, marshmallowy sinkage. Traces of lace. Looks good.

Smells dusty. Touch of citrus, apple. Slightly metallic but yeah, fruit is a bit sweet and bright, could use more edge.

Taste is malty for the most part; caramel and toffee there. Slight resinous notes midway to back. Bit simple, maybe a bit old and muted. Just mild hops, especially for 'triple hopping'.

Decent texture, feels alright.

Drinks alright but a bit dull. Could use a bit more hop flavour.
