Pours a pale yellow-orange colour, quite hazy. Head is white, whispy mostly, just a small cloud on top, with decent lace. OK.
Smells hoppy: nice citrus notes with passion and mango and a touch of green pepper. Zesty, fresh and pleasant.
Taste is a little old and oxidised perhaps. Notes of citrus and resin on there but a slight stale wet-grain note midway. Quite zesty and bitter mid-late, but all a bit muted unfortunately. Not bad but I feel this bottle might be just past its best.
Decent mouthfeel, fills out the body nicely. Bit of tingle.
Not bad, but I feel fresh would be amazing. Don't take my low score as a dampening.

Tried on-tap at the brewery on the Bermondsey Beer Mile. I asked what they recommended from their range and they said "The IPA is tasting out of this world right now".
Pours a bright golden colour with light-refracting haze. Body is solid, holding very fine carbonation. Lace forms in sudsy streaks from the foamy, pillowy creamy-white head that stays around persistently. Looks great.
Nose is clean and bright—dry hop notes clean and slightly herbal. Amarillo is prominent with its slightly dank fruitiness, but livened up with a bit of crisp citric Citra. Quite lovely. It's a bit lighter than it could have been but that would just be making a great thing even better.
Taste is awesome. Clean and smooth on the entry, laying down a nice neutral malt base. Here a bright, sunny West Coast IPA aroma builds up giving complex fruit and pithy citrus. It releases hop fragrances like little pops of deliciousness. Gorgeously clean on the finish, light and crisp without too much bitterness.
Feel is smooth but light: it's an almost perfect balance.
Wowee! They weren't kidding when they said it was tasting "out of this world". This is a cracker of an IPA. Super drinkable and refreshing with bags and bags of character—it would give most Californian IPAs a run for the money, and would probably crush all but the best of them.
