You’re up against one big, impenetrable triple IPA and he’s coming in to knock you out. Round 1: Pale and Dark Wheat keep you light on your feet. Round 2: a powerful jab of hop extract for bitterness hits right in the mouth. Round 3: an onslaught of Amarillo, Citra, El Dorado and Belma hops end the fight and the King is too big to get back up.

Hazy light amber, thin head lots of pineapple and Belma aroma, quite dry for a massive IPA.

On tap at Brouwer's Cafe, pours a completely opaque cloudy golden yellow with a small white head - sort of looks like unfiltered orange juice. Aroma brings out lots of pithy orange notes, resinous hops, and lots of residual sweetness. Flavour brings out orange rinds, sweet brown sugar and resinous hops. A little on the sweet side, but not in cloying territory. Well-constructed but not the most elegant. Very good.

Draft - Sweet light tangerine citrus. Murky yellow with a decent white head. Lots of orange with some citric acid. Vodka and orange anyone.
