Molly Rose – Skyline IPA, 5.7% 375ml can.
This seems like a completely straight up West Coast IPA, smells like sweet fruity hops. Taste is a very straight up classic IPA hops as far as bitterness, very nice and crisp. I don’t really notice any specific malt character even on warming. Like a NEIPA but straight classic hops? Refreshing both as something that’s not too common and also as a pretty great very drinkable beer.

Molly Rose – Shoulders IPA, 7.2% 375ml can.
This is one step up in every way from the Skylight IPA. Stronger more pine resinous smell, a slightly darker colour. The taste is a deeper bitterness (Chinook, Cascade, Centennial, Galaxy). Its not cloying or sweet, beers of this style traditionally go large on the malt to try and “balance” the hop bitterness, and again there’s no real malt character, even when it warms up. A bit more of a sipper at 7.2% but very enjoyable.
