A powerful and hoppy IPA that uses a blend of American hops, giving the beer a fresh citrus and grapefruit punch. Contains barley malt.

Taste: Initially pink grapefruit juice will wash over your tongue, with a zing of lively carbonation that follows you all the way down. Lime zest and even a hint of peppercorn can be found if left on the tongue, before the massive mango kick knocks through your teeth.

Many thanks to rosenbergh for this beer! Great fresh smooth fruity beginning. Lots of floral hops. Mango, Orange, smooth fresh. Only hints of pine there, not too sticky. Mainly on the fruity side. The aftertaste is moderate bitter and not too sticky. Great fresh, intense and fruity!

On tap @ Hoppiness Beer Stop. Pours cloudy amber with thick off-white head and very nice lacing. Aroma of pungent grapefruit and pine, passion fruit, peach and caramel. Taste starts with mild malty sweetness, then follows refreshing fruity with crisp and a bit dry mouthfeel with heavy but pleasantly bitter finish. Medium body, oily texture and lively carbonation in palate. One of the best IPA’s in last few months...

Keg at Kaapse, After Borefts Beer Festival, Rotterdam, Netherlands, Saturday 26th September 2015 Decent IPA, gold in colour, I understand that this is their flagship beer and I can see why, it is very good. Decent IPA, fruity with a steady bitter bite. A6 A4 T7 P3 Ov14 3.4
