This New England IPA brings the tropical essence of Saba straight to your glass. Crafted with malts from North America, including Canada and the U.S., this brew has a silky-smooth texture thanks to the addition of wheat and oats. The bitterness from Cascade hops is perfectly balanced, while the generous addition of Citra hops—both at flame-out and dry hop—unleashes a juicy burst of citrus and tropical fruits like grapefruit, mango, and passionfruit.
At 47 IBUs, it has just the right touch of bitterness without overpowering the bright, fruity hop profile.
Smooth, juicy, and packed with vibrant flavors, this IPA is a refreshing tropical escape in every sip—perfect for enjoying under the Caribbean sun.

Panda at home, big thanks to Graham Grumbo for this rar country scope, 07/07/2026.
Almost clear golden amber topped with an off white cap that settles to a swirl.
Nose is orange peel, grass, melon, mellow tropicana.
Taste comprises tangerine, melon, soft malts, light tropical fruits, soft breads.
Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close splashed with mellow hop bitterness.
Entry level IPA but fine as a rar country scope. 6.7 to be fair!

Sample thanks to Grumbo, and originally from Bruno it seems. A nice rare country tick.
Slightly hazy orange with a white head. Aroma of stone fruits and citrus, tropical. Taste of peach, grapefruit, mango, slightly sweet leaning with a light hop spice bitterness. Medium bodied.
Rather pleasant but nothing exceptional - exactly what I'd expect from a beer brewed on a tiny island I suppose.

Can. Somewhat hazy orange golden, smaller and not too lasting white head. Moderate hoppy nose, punchy and sweet - peach and citruses. Milder bitterness, some mild peachy sweetness. Moderate aftertaste. Lighter body. Nice NEIPA.

5/6/2026. Can facilitated by Bruno, cheers. Pours well. Aroma is hoppy, dank, piney, tangerine, papaya, peppercorn, touch rubbery. Mellow sweetness, medium bitterness, slight spicy edge. Moderate body, a little oily, average carbonation. A little subdued but nice enough.
