Smash & Grab is an explosive hop-bomb of juicy goodness.
Crammed full of fruity tropical and citrus flavours from only the freshest, tastiest hops; this big hitting double IPA takes taste to the next level.

With smooth malty depths to match its huge hoppy highs, the finish is smooth, sharp and moreish.

Can courtesy of John (cheers John!), End of the Road Festival, Larmer Tree Gardens, Dorset/Wiltshire border, Sunday 4th September 2016 I drank this straight from the can so cannot be exact about colour or appearance but one of our group did pour and it looked gold (with some haze). Very fruity and very easy drinking, surprisingly easy drinking in fact. Lots of tropical fruits and a nice bittersweet balance, really enjoyed this too busy watching music to do a decent rate, suffice to say it was very, very good. A8 A4 T8 P4 Ov17 4.1

Can shared with the Mrs@Hop Burns & Black, East Dulwich, London (29/08/2016) - orange amber pour with white head. Fruity and malty with resonating hits of grapefruit, mango, peach, some light caramel sweetness, pretty dank hoppy, resin, drinks well below the abv. Gorgeous.

Hazy orange color, small white head. Citrus, riped pineapple and resin in the nose. Medium to full-bodied. Citrus, pine, pineapple, gooseberry hoppyness. Piney-riped fruity-resiny robust DIPA. Drinkability for this ABV is nice. Good one.

Can. Hazy deep amber beer, decent pale cream colour head. Palate is light and mildly dry, decent fine carbonation. Light malts, mildly sweet. Smooth but fairly strong pine. Mild hop skunk and spice. Tropical fruits, mildly resinous. Light finish. Comes together very well but it’s lacks the brightness of the very best. Very nice nontheless.
