The latest in our Universe series. A single-hop Double IPA built to showcase the unmistakable character of Galaxy. Bursting with notes of passion fruit, peach, citrus zest and tropical punch, all riding on a smooth, full-bodied base. Bold, aromatic, and clean on the finish — a full-spectrum expression of Galaxy.

Can at home, from HOTM online, 23/05/2026.
Murky orange topped with a lasting just off white head.
Nose is grassy, dank, raw tropicana, light herbal notes.
Taste comprises raw pineapple, chalky minerals, grass, dank chimes, grapefruit.
Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close spiked with danko come grassy hop bitterness.
Not really doing it for me overly raw and lacking balance.

500ml can. Murky yellow orange with a white head. Aroma of pungent dank weedy and herbs, ripe tropical fruits. Taste is also quite herbal, dank, ripe tropical fruits, peach, and some rather pithy citrus fruits giving a fair bit of bitterness at the end. Medium-full bodied.
Not a big fan of Galaxy so no surprise I end up rating this lower than others in the series, still a well made DIPA though.

Can. A fairly hazy and slightly yellowish gold beer, small bubbly pale cream colour head. Airy palate, fairly dry, decent fine minerally carbonation. The pale malts are a little thin bodied and, seem to be the cause of the dryness. A hop spice bite from the get go. Light pine. Juicy broad spectrum hop fruits but, there is a decent reminder here of original old skool bitterness. Not quite the face stripping affair that it was when it first arrived on these shores, but a good reminder. Some tangy hop fruits on the light and semi dry finish. Long mildly spicy and less mildly bitter linger. Intriguing brew. If it had been any other hop, think I would have been disappointed but, this is a good reminder of days of yore

Can from House Of Trembling Madness. Milky deep golden body with an off-white head that holds well. No visible carbonation. Faint lacing. Aroma of spring onion and passionfruit. Flavour of orange, onion and a peppery hop finish. Medium to full body with a smooth texture. Soft fizz. Dank and peppery.

Keg at From Beer To Eternity, Havant. Hazy waxy yellow woth a foamy white head l. Aroma is punchy - herbs and resin with underlying malta. Flavourwise it's similar with added spice. Thick. Oily. Soft-average carbonation. Long dry astringent finish. Oh yeah..
