Stacked
Stacked is a gluten-free West Coast IPA at 5.2% with 39 IBU, named after the stacked rock formations found across the Peak District. The brewery calls it big, fruity and citrusy and adds the tasting words bitter, citrus and moreish. A Finnish state-retailer tasting sheet notes a yellow-brown, medium-bodied and aromatic beer with fruit and rich lemon; reviewers add peach, a hint of pine and a moderate, slightly herbal bitterness. It is sold in 440 ml and 330 ml cans.
