Take a sip of this copper-colored India Pale Ale and you’ll taste bold, citrusy hops with a touch of mango and passionfruit balanced by rich caramel malts. Castaway IPA has a clean, crisp finish that’s as fresh as the wind in your face when you set sail for adventure.

Pours clear blonde, OK white head. Smell is dry, rather malty, very mildly bitter, hints of aromatic hops. Taste is sharp, very grainy, bit bitter. not much aroma. the aftertaste is quite good ( a very nice blended taste of bitterness and hops ) but its unintense. The taste itself is quite unintence too, very simple, and not nearly as aromatic as I had hoped. Ok beer, but certainly nothing more, especially in it’s style.
