To create a recipe so tropical and fruity without the addition of fruit was no feat our team of brewers would leave up to the gods. They took floral and citrus notes from Mosaic, Loral and Mandarina Bavaria hops to dish up a mouthwatering fruit punch to the palate. Get deserted on your own island or share with others. One thing is for sure: there is no need to light this one. It is already on fire.

12oz bottle from Holiday Market. Pours a clear orange gold with a finger of quickly dissipating foam. Soft tropical fruit notes of peach, mango, melon with slight notes of alcohol. More of the same on the palate with a piney, resinous bitter finish. Classic Stone, very enjoyable.

Kind of a cross between a West coast and an East coast or an unusually fruity West coast. They're almost are fresh pineapple and citrus hops with touches of mint and weed. Flavors are like nose, slightly sweet up front with good carbonation and some growing bitter. Going into a long bitter finish tempered by some malt. Decent beer.

12 oz. bottle. Frothy foam over a light amber beer. Light tropical fruit nose. Bright fruity hop taste from the start. Still some sharp bitterness as well. All this against some light malts that don't betray much alcohol. Let's call it crisp, and a nice diversion.

Can. Hazy amber golden, medium offwhite head, pretty stable. Very resinous and piney nose, milder fruitiness. Solid bitterness, a bit herbal. Lasting aftertaste. Lighetr body. Proper IPA.

0.355 l can from Goblet Beer Store, Zagreb. Shared with little Dina. Hazy orange with a golden glow, medium frothy off-white head. Maybe not perfectly fresh. Aromas are indeed fruity, but with a strong earthy undertone, leaves and herbs. Chewing gum, stone fruit marmalade, such as apricot or peach. A sugary and slightly perfumy touch. Flavour is fruity candy, leaves, earth, malts, even light cardboard. Light to moderate bitterness, lasting throughout. Medium body. Moderate carbonation. Strong, although alcohol is hidden. Slightly sticky.

Can, 0.355l. Cloudy copper pour, half finger frothy off-white head. Good retention, lasting head. Solid lacing on the glass. Nose is a bit on the malty side, caramel, herbs and grass. Questionable freshness, hoping the taste is ok. Medium body, average carbonation. Good mouthfeel and texture, chewy, nice thickness to it. Herbal bittersweet taste and aroma. Herbs and grass, caramel malt. Mild spiciness. Floral and fruity notes in the background. Tropical fruits, citruses, orange peel. Long lasting finish, dry, lingering bitterness. Mild alcohol burn on the tongue. Good.

Clear golden color with low white head. Aroma: hard candy, pine, ripe papaya. Taste: hard candy, caramel, resin, grapefruit, cantalouope. Medium body, moderate carbonation, high and long lasting bitterness. Quite a classic American IPA with loads of hops and pleasing high bitterness.
