Double Citrus IPA. First released in September 2016.
The oranges for Deucebox, our 8.3% citrus double IPA, are harvested by blasting California Dreaming through very large speakers at such a high intensity, the fruit just falls from the trees and juices itself. This is then added to our Citrus IPA recipe with twice the hops, twice the malt and twice the juice to serve up a punchy, tropical, glass of joy, every time.
We'd like to pretend that this beer was inspired by long sunny afternoons strolling through the orange orchards of Valencia, which would be nice, but the truth is we liked Juicebox so much we wanted to fill a swimming pool with it and float lazily whilst bathing in its delicious joy. Maximum juice. This is like that... but you drink it... from a can.

Keg at the Hop Locker, 28/04/17. Golden orange with a well appointed off white head. Nose is caramel, bitter otange, citric tinged straw, mango, cantaloupe melon. Taste comrpises light caramel malt, toasted brioche, mango, mixed tropical fruit medley, orange pith. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with juicy hop bitterness. Decent enough well balanced DIPA but no wow factor when compared with some of the more recent DIPA’s to hit the shelves in the UK.

Keg at The Hanging Bat. Hazy amber body with a thin white head that fades. Low carbonation. Very faint lacing. Aroma of honey, pine and orange. Flavour of pineapple, orange, caramel and peppery hops. Medium body with an oily texture. Light fizz. Very tasty. Fourpure are on a roll with their recent hoppy beers.

On tap at the brewery Bermondsey. Hazy copper amber colour lasting off white head. Big peach tropical fruit aroma. Pineapple mango passionfruit. Really hoppy. Lovely. Brewery has come on leaps and bounds from the start and producing easy drinking lovely beers. Excellent some bitterness. A little warmth from the abv. Good.

Hazy golden, white head. Smell is sweet and grapefruity. Taste follows suit. Grass, grapefruit, maybe a touch of caramel? Very nice.
