Everything about this hoppy marriage makes sense. Lots of tropical fruit, as you would expect, but also a resinous and slightly dank character. A bouquet of stone fruit and melon with a refreshing citrus vibe on the palate.

Bottle way way past when I should have rated it, but tickers tick: Poured a golden orange with a frothy white head. Aroma is tropical fruits, citrus, malty. Taste is hoppy, citrus, tropical, malty backbone. Definitely mellowed on the hops.

33cl bottle from the Beer52 selection for September. A hazy pale amber pour with a loose cream head; oragney aroma; sweet orange and grapefruit taste; with a dry zesty finish with lingering yeast. A nicely balanced IPA.
