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.

Bottle. $1.75 Wine Warehouse. Pours golden, slightly hazy, tiny head. Smells of hops, a bit of grass, almost lagery. Taste is strong hops, not overly flavorful, and finishes quite bitter. OK.

A few 12oz bottles at the beach. Poured a light golden color with a small white head. Aroma was some light tropical fruit notes, floral hops, light bitter hop character. Flavor was light, sweet malts, light juicy fruit character. Pretty tasty!
