Named after California’s Highway 78, this India Pale Ale was brewed in commemoration of the 50th Anniversary of the city of Vista. With plenty of Galaxy, Falconer’s Flight, Southern Cross and just a tad bit of Nelson hops, our latest IPA is truly sessionable. Aroma’s include grapefruit, passionfruit, and citrus.

Can at home. Aroma is tropical fruits, grapefruit, pine resin, peach, floral notes, citrus, some malt, hops. Flavour is light sweet with a bitter finish. Medium bodied. Intense juicy fruity, piney and a bit floral hoppy. Very rich ’fruits basket’ IPA.

Purchased well past is fresh days but worth a punt when I saw it. White spotty cover & collar on a hazy dark lemon coloured still body. Tangy hops, citrus & pithy aroma. Medium bodied, light on the palate with a dry clean back. Pithy citrus, tangy, lemon, Citra & some sweet fruits & grapefruit on the back. I'd love to try this fresh.

Lustige Dose, schöne Nase, Mango, sehr NEIPAesque. Im Trunk ebenso, herrlich cremig, Fruchtkompott satt. Süffig, wenig bitter, fruchtig, geil. Vielleicht etwas zu gefällig.

355ml bottle from Hop Knocker, Durham. Golden colour, white foam head leaving lacing and mellow mango hoppy aroma. Taste is malt caramel balanced with fruity mango, citrus, grapefruit, pine and hop bitterness. Smooth mouthfeel, medium bodied, soft carbonation, dry mellow bitter finish. Very drinkable IPA
