Wow! That’s special. Smoked chilli and lime right from the off. Beautifully balanced too. Cocoa comes in the tail. What a fab beer!

Been a while since I had this. Crisp but fruity. Belgo have stopped selling the Red version.

First beer under 10% I’ve had from this lot. Quite a big malt profile for an ipa. Very drinkable, but tastes more like a light bitter to me.
