Blood orange juice lends this IPA the full force of its sharp and pithy citrus power with bitter grapefruit coming through from the West Coast hops. Pucker up!

440ml can. This 2021 resurrection of a Pressure Drop original switches out the mandarin for blood orange but I’m not convinced it works.
L: Freshly squeezed orange juice with a foam head that collapses quickly to a ring.
S: Freshly cut, damp straw.
T: Sharp and assertive, mouth-puckering bitterness. Some sweetness emerges reluctantly but the finish is loooooong and bone dry.
F: Medium body.
O: The blood orange adds a zesty edge but the tang of citrus is quickly lost. The overriding sense is of dryness. An arid, moisture-sucking, fruited American-style IPA. A major downgrade, looking at the earlier reviews.
