This is our brewery’s Heart & Soul.
Created to have all the hoppy goodness of an IPA, but brewed to a sessionable strength. Its intense fruit-salad character comes from generous additions of US West Coast hops. A full bodied and fruity beer, with notes of passion fruit, grapefruit, gooseberry, pineapple & mango.

330ml can from Ales by Mail. BBE JAN 2017. Pours golden orange with a smooth white head. Aroma of grass, fruits, biscuity malts and tropical notes. Taste is citrusy, fruity and crisp with some biscuity malts, grass, grapefruit and lemon. Finish is crisp, hoppy and fruity with some grapefruit, citrus and mango. Pretty quaffable and tasty, despite the aroma is a bit dull.

Holiday, top-50 fun hunt, #2, i believe it’s my first beer from Vocation. Can from @Bitter Virtue, Southampton. Session Ipa, golden/yellow with z white head. Aroma of tropical fruits, like melon and grapefruit. Taste has also got a lot of exotic fruits like melon and grapefruit, some citrus, mango and othe exotic fruits, soft, pretty bitter, medium sweetness, the fruit and the sweetness is trying to subdue the bitterness as long the beer is cold, soft, very nice.

330ml can from Favourite Beers. Hazy golden yellow colour with a two finger white head. Hoppy aroma, tropical fruits, grapefruit, mango. Fruity flavour, tropical fruits like mango, grapefruit, passionfruit, slightly sweet, some bitterness at the end - way more flavour than I was expecting. Nice smooth, soft mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Would absolutely session this, one of the best session IPAs I’ve had.

Can at home, 13/06/16. Bought at Winerack, West Byfleet. A hay/grassy aroma. A cloudy gold with a sparklinng white head - although the latter had little legs to it. Well balanced bitterness.Medium body, on the thin side, with somw carbonation. Could sink a few - works as a session beer.

Can. Nose is pine, tropical fruit, passion fruit, pineapple, hint of mango and lychee. Taste is pine, mango, lychee, grapefruit rind, hint of orange, little straw in the finish. It’s not a world changing beer, but comfortably the best British beer in the supermarket. Craft beers going macro with distribution is a very good thing.
