Tropical and citrus fruits meld with juicy mango, while habaneros add a warming kick to boost the resinous bitterness of this pale golden IPA. Originally brewed as a B-Side.

23/IX/16 - on tap @ Borefts Bier Festival - BB: n/a (2016-1074) Thanks to the Belgian ratebeer crew for sharing today's beers!
Clear dark blond beer, small white head, little stable, bit adhesive. Aroma: bit soapy, floral, some pineapple, bit of citrus, mango. MF: soft carbon, medium body. Taste: lots and lots of chilli, fruity, citrus, pineapple. Aftertaste: immense chilli burn, this is not funny any more. And I tell you, I'm a fucking chilli head! Apparently it was only with the kegged version, I heard the cans are pretty ok.

Keg at Brewdog shepherds Bush. A clear bright golden coloured pour with a a lasting fluffy sticky white head. Aroma is sweet canned mango, tropical fruits , peach melba and apricot. Nice fruity bouquet on the nose but maybe a little artificial. Flavour is composed of semi sweet Base malts, mixed tropical fruits with mango and peach melba, grassy chilli, assertive rounded chilli character. Palate is medium bodied, frothy carbonation and semi drying finish. Good stuff the chilli and mango work well together.

Can from Brewdog Online Shop. Pours clear golden amber with a thin white head. Aromas of mango, peach, nectarine and faint hot pepper, also something green and leafy. Taste is ouch! Heat. Fruity chili. It burns! Then cools with the mango and citrus coming back in.

Keg at BD down Shep, 19/09/16. Golden orange with a well presented off white cap. Nose is toasted grains, popping candy, orange peel, mango, trace of white pepper. Taste comprises vanilla essence, candyfloss, green pepper burn, toasted malt, mango chutney, orange peel, buttered popcorn. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with a chilli kick allied to a sweet malt base and subtle hopping. Decent for style .... The sweetness tempers the chilli burn.
