Three kilos of hops and forty kilos of barley selflessly give their lives to brew every barrel of this beer. It’s a lot to ask, but their reincarnation as this life-affirming IPA makes their sacrifice worthwhile.

A ballsy, US style IPA, expect flavours of tropical & citrus fruits, with a lingering bitterness set against a smooth malty backbone.

Lattina. Il gusto al naso viene attratto dalla frutta tropicale. La finezza olfattiva è elevata e il modo in cui permane è sufficiente. Il manto birroso superiore è caratterizzato da una schiuma dalla buona tenuta. La grandezza delle bollicine è medio-fine. Il liquido appare velato. Il colore è giallo dorato. Il corpo è strutturato. L'amaro è intenso. La forza gustativa è elevata e la durata è buona. Il gusto è piacevole. Le sensazioni boccali finali risultano luppolate. Il retrogusto è intenso. L'aroma in bocca porta i segni di miele, crosta di pane, frutta secca, luppolo, resina, pino, agrumi, pompelmo, ananas, arancia amara, mango, frutta tropicale e mandarino.

Nice tin! Slightly hazy mid-yellow with a good head. Herbal aromas, pine, peppermint, lemon, slightly sweaty, faint tropicals. Piney taste, light to medium bodied, citrus aftertaste. Some tropical mixed in there too. Nice drinkable IPA. Not complex.

330ml can pours out golden topped with a white head. Nose is pine citrus hops some grain malts. Taste is more of the nice hop combo and a well balanced malt.
