This is our take on a classic cocktail with an Asian twist and a cool name. An IPA with apricot and a slim hint of umami. It’s crisp, fruity and perhaps full-bodied.

50 cl can @ home. Hazy orange with a medium sized white head. Smells fruity, fresh, hoppy, zesty. Tastes bitter, fruity, hops, slightly pine. Somehow the aftertaste is salty which I kinda hate in this beer. Calling it umami doesn't help. Medium body, nice carbo.

Can from Cork & Cask. Hazy golden body with sediment floating beneath a thin white head that fades. Low carbonation. Aroma of sponge cake and orange pith. Flavour of apricot and grass. Medium body with a chewy mouthfeel. Soft fizz. Not a beer I’d seek out again - it’s quite sweet and muted.

Can @ Beerfox bottleshop. Pours cloudy orange, full color looking tasty with some nice white foam on the top. Fruity nose, tropical with some mineral thing also there. Mango and yep, some over-ripe apricot also there. Taste has good level of bitterness, fleshy fruitiness, bitterness a bit muted, quite strong but not very bright. Good fruity IPA, does not shine for me though.

Hints of apricot and salt, or is that 'umami'
