Tropically Hoppy. Light, yet Full-Bodied. Bright and Citrusy. Word. The magical, mystical 12th of Never is a blend of Old and New School hops that play bright citrus, rich coconut, and papaya-esque flavors, all on a solid stage of English puffed wheat. Tropically hoppy. Light, yet full-bodied. Bright and citrusy. The 12th of Never Ale is everything we’ve learned about making hop-forward beer expressed in a moderate voice. Pale, cold, slightly alcoholic and bitter. It’s all we know.

Can from Albert Heijn. Pours clear golden with a stable, frothy, white head. Aroma & taste have citrus, apple juice, pear, bready malt, hay; mostly subtle sweet fruit, subtle yeast, bit 'pure' malty. Rather empty finish, refreshing with grassy hops. Medium body, slick texture, fizzy carbonation. Standard but quenching.

Can, 0.355l. Aroma of citrus, passion fruit, pine and biscuit. Pours clear pale golden color with medium sized frothy white head and sparkling appearance. Taste starts light sweet bready and metallic, following is grassy, citrusy and toasted malty, mouthfeel is smooth, while finish is pretty bitter. Light to medium body, slick texture and average carbonation in palate. Not a never again ale, but not astonishing...

Pours golden amber with a fluffy white head, furious carbonation. Aroma has lemon, light pine. Taste has light citrus notes, light pine resin, faint hints of hop oils that linger on the tongue. Palate has lightly ferrous barley notes on the nose. Refreshing.
