Leigh		12 Apr 2010	Slightly darker than the Pippin, with a distinctly hoppier after-taste. Served in excellent condition and very refreshing.

Leigh		14 Apr 2009	Copper-hued and imbued with masses of peppery hop character from Challenger Hops. Not as agressive as some American IPA's, but slightly more fiery than traditional, mild 'English style' IPA's. A nice companion to Golden Pippin.

Ian		18 Jan 2006	Copper colour with disappearing white head. OK hop aroma with some pear drop in mouth. Fullish, good citrus and hop finish. Clean enough. Not a classic IPA. Hop finish is nice and bitter
