This is an India Pale Ale style of beer from Yahho Brewing company, the people who brought you Yona Yona, Sun Sun Organic Beer and Tokyo Black Porter.

An India Pale Ale is a type of ale originally brewed in the late 18th century and became very popular amongst the East India Trading Company (out of England) workers and was developed specifically for merchants and customers in England at that time.
It then became popualr back in England aswell.
I believe originally a "pale ale" was an ale made with pure malt, although not sure if this is still the case.

So, on to this particular IPA.

Copper coloured and fairly flat in the glass this is an unusual tasting ale, very bitter, especially on the aftertaste, quite dry too.

At first I wasn't too struck on it, but it's kind of growing on me (drinking it as I'm writing this), not sure if I would rush out and buy another one...no, I've decided I wouldn't.

Glad I tried it, but not my cup of tea. Does have an amusing can design though which makes it stand out (actually most of Yahho's beer do).
