Anybody ever had it? I thinks it's pretty awesome. It's from London, England. Very nice flavors.. Bottle conditioned, and a little hazy, but nice and hoppy. I would love to get a recipe of this beer.I normally don't care for English IPA's. But, this beer is super nice.

Their website only shows champagne caged bottles but we got 11.2oz bottles in a couple of cases for our little brew fest two weeks ago.https://www.meantime...-india-pale-aleVery much worth seeking out.

Looks tasty as heck! There website is great.Online order form too, shipping might be a nice dime for champagne size bottles(six per order) from the UK.

My local shop has this and the London Porter, most days. They seem to be getting the smaller bottles more often than the big ones, these days, but that might be because they're cheaper and sell more quickly. Very good, but the 750 mL bottles go for about $12, I think. I had the IPA on cask about a month ago at a NERAX event. That was a real treat, especially at $6 for an imperial pint. This was the description they used for that event (I see that it's also on the website linked above):Jam packed with English Fuggles and Goldings, the beer is brewed with as many hops as we can physically get into the copper. We even add more hops using our own unique circulation process to ensure maximum contact between the hops and the body of the beer. All this gives us a final hopping rate of well over 2lbs of hops per barrel, resulting in a beer which throws out ginger notes and flavors of marzipan which soften into a rich Seville orange marmalade.

Not had the IPA yet but I've had the porter and it's terrific. I'll give the IPA a shot next time I'm out shopping for non-sour beers.

We had two cases for our Hops and Props event. The distributor got them for us. They were the 11.2oz beautiful bottles. This was the first time I had even heard about them. For me to rave about an IPA, and especially and English one, is saying a lot! This is one fine beer. I would love to learn more about it and try and brew it sometime. I'll most likely go to a local retailer who will order anything they have on their list for us. A case or two, would definitely not be too much!
