3.6 Bottle. Malty, medium sweetness and medium bitterness. Herbal with lots of EKG, but the hops could be a bit more punchy.
3.4 Bottle, 0.5l. Clear copper pour, half finger soapy white head, short lasting. Minimal lacing on the glass. Floral, perfumy nose, some grassy notes, citruses in the background. Lingering sweetness. Medium body, average carbonation. Fizzy mouthfeel, smooth and soft texture, refreshing and easily drinkable. Grassy bitter taste balanced with mild sweetness in the background. Aroma of grassy hops, grains, citruses. Zest, herbs and spices, subtle honey notes. Floral. Malty backbone Lingering bitterness. Medium lasting finish, dry. Refreshing and drinkable but the taste is more in the lines of a golden ale. Still, good one.
5.0 Really hoppy and strong beer, one of my favorites!
2.5 Robe blonde cristalline, incroyablement transparente, sans aucune mousse ni bulle. Totalement acqueuse. Aucune odeur. En bouche, attaque amere, fort et long. Agrumes et fruits en bouche. Belle longueur mais toujours acqueux. Deuxieme amertume fort et sèche. Pas de gaz ni de bulle, pas de tenue non plus. Manque d’equilibre
3.1 Cerveza IPA suave, de sabor ligero pero agradable, espuma leve y un color turbio claro. Lo mejor, la botella de 500ml.
3.6 Robe blonde dorée, limpide, très brillante. Aucune mousse, rien. Arômes résineux agrumes fruits exotiques floral fruits jaunes, diacétyle léger. Goût sucré moyen amertume marquée sans astringence. Texture fluide, légèrement huileuse. Carbonatation très fine un peu faible. Se boit bien
3.7 Aroma of bitter hops, sweet fruits and lime Nice orange amber colour with little to no head Taste of dominant bitter hops with notes of lemon Medium carbonation with smooth mouthfeel Refreshing
3.7 Light amber without head. Smell of lime and bitter hops. Taste of hops, citrus and a great bitterness. Very nice
3.6 Good IPA smell and taste. Clearly easy to drink.
3.1 bottle - clear golden yellow, high carbonation with large initial head but dissipates to thin. Strong citrus aroma - pleasant. Slight ting in mouth. Good tasting with decent citrus finish.
2.9 Belle amertume, blonde, belle carbo, longueur d’amertume
3.7 A very nice double IPA. Not as powerfull as the american imperial IPAs but very nice an d drinkeable. Fruity and bitter with a long finish.
3.2 Bottle 33cl. Clear amber with a white head. Fresh citrus aroma, tangerine and weak malt. Taste is fresh tangerine, the sweet ones, followed by a bitter finish. Medium length.
3.5 Deep gold with a frothy white head. Grapefruit aroma. Peaches underneath. Floral. Taste is bitter, a mix of citric and herbal. Medium bodied, very smooth with balanced carbonation. Good.
3.4 Ipa med masser af humle og bitterhed. Fin øl, men Mangler lang for at komme helt op at ringe.
4.2 Helsted - very Nice DIPA.
3.8 33cl fles. Helder goudgeel van kleur, fijne witte schuimkraag. De geur is grapefruit en mango. Smaak is zoet, droog mout, grapefruit en gras. Medium body en veel koolzuur.

3.8 500ml bottle from RusBeerShop in Moscow. My 200th English beer. Pours clear gold with a thin white head. Aroma is grapefruit, mango, floral. Taste is dry, caramel, grapefruit, malt. Medium bitter finish. Extremely drinkable.
4.0 English ale DIPA. Nicest English had, not thin. Thicker & malty. Good!!
4.1 this is lovely... not as bold as some other double IPAs but the drinkability wins the day. Lots of citrus and grapefruit as expected but dare I say this is easy drinking, maybe even a session in this one! Lush beer and it's all to do with balance of flavour. Think the original proper job but just given a boost rather than a transformation. Never too drying or bitter. So refreshing, a real gem.
3.6 Pours an amber colour beer with a white frothy head Notes of citrus fruits and strawberries fruits Found at Wetherspoons in bury ST Edmunds
3.8 Cornish IPA, proper jobs big brother
3.5 Une petite bière surprenante avec un goût appréciable. Une bien belle découverte.
3.0 From local Teaco, not a bad double IPA 7.2% 330ml bottle.
4.0 Clear golden colour with small white head. Strong citrus hop aroma with notes of grass and tropical fruits. Strong dry citrus hop bite to taste with zesty flavours of lime and grapefruit developing. Nice long bitter aftertaste. Really nice.
3.5 Bouteille de 33 cl achetée chez Super U. Robe dorée limpide avec une fine mousse blanche éphémère. Arômes houblonnés, agrumes. Texture crémeuse, carbonatation moyenne, faible amertume. Notes légèrement résineuses, pamplemousse et agrumes. Finale sèche et amère. Assez classique.
3.7 Bottiglia. Il gusto al naso è indirizzato verso il luppolo. L'olfatto viene stimolato in maniera elevata e l'esistenza olfattiva è apprezzabile. Il cappello di schiuma resiste poco. La grandezza delle bollicine è a grana medio-fine. Il liquido è di aspetto cristallino. Il colore è ambrato. Il corpo è strutturato. L'amaro è carico. La forza gustativa è elevata e la durata è buona. Le sensazioni boccali finali risultano luppolate. Il finale è amarognolo. Il retrogusto è intenso. Al gusto vengono donati toni di miele, frutta secca, agrumi, pompelmo, ananas e frutta tropicale.
3.2 330ml Flasche. Dunkelgelbes klares Bier, heller Schaum. Überraschend blumig-fruchtiger Duft. Tropischer Fruchtnektar. Mango, Erdbeere. Süsser hopfiger Geschmack. Mandarine, Citrus, Zucker. Echt zu süss. Bitterer Abgang. Harz.
3.8 Pours bronze, lively carbonation with a thin delicate head. Notes of sherry cask, nuts, caramel all with a robust malt backbone. Flavours are big, bitter and dry as a bone... citrus in the background.
