This Passionfruit Pale Ale is sunshine in a can - think palm trees, white sandy beaches and blue skies rolled into a refreshing burst of exotic flavour. Combining spiky mosaic and citra hops with juicy passionfruit, we've brewed a pale ale that's brimming with tropical character. Fun and sunshine, there's enough (in this can) for everyone!

Can from the LCBO. Over the top fruity aroma, pungent passionfruit, with a super sweet random fruitiness. Barely any semblance of hops, maybe a bit of grass. overly sweet finish, no malts. this was pretty bad, fruity alcopop.

Can from Aldi Supermarket, Milnrow. Golden with a head. Has a dryish mouthfeel, is hoppy, with its passionfruit flavours coming off a little 'dark berry' in terms of taste. Fruity in its nose too there's certainly a plethora of tropical fruits to be found in this one. Perhaps its a little dense in design for it.

330ml can from Morrison’s. Poured a crystal clear golden colour with a thin broken white head and some broken lace. The aroma is malt, light passion fruit, herbal, woody hop. The flavour is moderate bitter, with a crisp, light citrus, earthy, light floral hop bitter palate. Medium bodied with average carbonation. Not the greatest beer I’ve had from Innis and Gunn.

Clear gold with a rich white head. Pale malts, caramel and a light fruity note. Pale malts and not really much else. Disappointing.

Can delivered from ASDA, drunk at home. Mid- to dark gold, clear with a small uneven film of white head. Not a lot of aroma bit it's pleasant enough. I get some gummy tropical fruit and orange peel. Bittersweet and slightly astringent taste with slight tropical fruit - maybe passionfruit - sweetening the taste a bit before the short, acrid finish. Medium carbonation. Passable if dull.

330ml can; BB 31st Dec 2020. Poured into a thistle shaped glass at home on 7th Feb 2020. On opening the can I got an awful aroma of ripe 'Durian', luckily that dissipated and some Passion fruit esters arrived. It poured a clear and bright light golden colour, the white head soon turning into a wisp and collar. Citrus like flavours in the taste, also the aroma improved as it warmed a little, again with a citrus twang. Scored kindly!

500ml can. Pours a clear gold with a medium, foamy, long lasting white head that laces nicely. Mild fruity aroma of bready caramel malt, passion fruit, mango, peach, orange rind and floral hops. Sweet fruity flavour of caramel malt, passion fruit, melon, orange rind and herbal hops in a dry, mild bitter, grassy finish. Light body with a watery texture and average carbonation. Underwhelming but not terrible. Easy to drink.
