Tropical Galaxy is a cosmic elixir of lush equatorial flavors. We blended mangoes, lime and coconut together in oak foedres with our farmhouse-brett base beer to create a far out and funky tropical treat. We finished it with a generous dry-hopping of Australian Galaxy Hops, contributing aromas of passionfruit and citrus. Enjoy on your next intergalactic odyssey with fresh crab, jerk chicken or scallop ceviche.

Bottle from Beerdome.nl. Fantastic fruity nose of tropical fruit. The beer starts smooth and refreshing sour. Fresh tropical fruit, coconuts are there, mango and a citric sour lime fruitiness. All smooth sour with funk there, hints of wood and lots of floral hops. The aftertaste is full and rich, the tropical fruits are smooth juicy sour, intense round and harmonising with the wood and the funk great! Long fruity juicy sour aftertaste with even subtle hints of coconut fitting in fantastic!

(375ml bottle from kihoskh.dk) Pours lightly hazy medium gold with a small white head that leaves lots of lace. Aroma is nice and tart, fruity and moderately funky, notes of mango, passionfruit, lime and grapefruit pop out of a citrus muddle, bright and even a touch vinous with balanced oak, maybe a touch of coconut blending with the wood. Flavour is lightly tart, fruity and quite tropical, blending lime, tart orange, passionfruit, mango, pale malts with a touch of bready yeast, dry grass, light funk, balanced drying oak. Coconut is not heavily obvious on its own but seems to have a rounding feel on the acidic fruity elements and persists in the finish. Medium bodied with a little prickle to the carb. Nice stuff, it's fruity but not juice, the elements play nicely, and the tartness is quenching but no more. Damn tasty.

Pours hazy gold into a tulip. Bright white head with good retention recedes leaving spider lacing. Tropical fruit and grapefruit aromas. Soft with sour mango and lime upfront turning to dry oak and marshmallow in the lasting finish.
