	This beer really has to be tried on tap to fully appreciate. I had tried more than a few bottles & wondered how the hell they could cal it an IPA. Not that it was a bad drop at all. I love all the goat beers. They have a great malt profile (which I feel sometimes smothers the hops) On tap it's a totally different beer. A lot more hop driven than the bottled version.

	Very murky colour which is due to the yeast left in the bottle, however the yeast is really fine and rather than leaving a visible yeast it simply turns the beer into a mud colour. Couple with practically no head results in an 'unattractive' beer and makes you think about drinking it at first. However there is quite a fruity hoppy aroma which is very strong and grabs your attention. This IPA is has a strong hoppy flavour and is carbonated to perfection with an excellent amount of bitterness in the aftertaste. However there was very little malt flavour despite the bottle description saying so. Had a medium body that went down well.
