440ml can:
Translucent copper & a 1cm, bubbly white head. Sweet malts & pine hops on the nose, orange zesty & a sticky sweetness. Taste was resinous pine, sweet malts & stone fruits with a bit of alcohol too. Overly bitter for me with an oily feels with moderate carbonation & dry hops to finish.

L: Hazy, copper colour with a thin head that disappears quickly but leaves arcs of lacing. Beautiful colour.
S: Loads of rich orange. Heavy and dank rather than juicy and zesty.
T: Marmalade, resin, overripe orange. Moderate bitterness that builds. Semi-sweet. Just a hint of alcohol heat in the aftertaste.
F: Medium/heavy body with an oily mouthfeel. Spicy, bitter finish.
O: A big and bold old skool AIPA from Liverpool, England. Rich and resinous. Alcohol is noticeable but understated. Very nicely crafted.
