Sabro is a hop we’ve been on the periphery of, but haven’t had the chance to brew with just yet. The newest hype hop finally landed in our cold store just as we were arranging a collaboration with our friends at Chamonix-based Big Mountain Brewing Co, and it seemed as if it were written in the stars to use this hop for the occasion. Paired up with a Polly’s stalwart in Citra, and named for Scott’s truly awful George Takei impression, this beer is absolutely massive on pineapple, coconut, and creamy tropical fruit flavours.

On tap at The Made Inn Ashford. Turbid pale gold colour thin white head. Big pineapple aroma. Decent in mouth. Tropical fruit flavour. Virtually no bitterness on the finish. Yep OK but not my thing.

440ml can. Pours very hazy light orange with a medium head. Aroma is overripe mango and onion hop. Taste is sweet to start with lemon and a bitter onion hop finish.

On tap at Brew Festival. It's an unclear dirty-yellow beer topped by a dense white head. Nice lacing. The aroma has pineapple, generic tropical fruityness, some yellow plum and a hint of grains. It's medium to full-bodied, nicely carbonated and with a decent bitterness. Fruity flavor too, mostly pineapple and tropical fruit, but also some grassy, herbal notes, and a subtle maltyness. Medium length finish. A decent one, but nothing special going on here. 220429

440ml can drank upstairs in the Kings Yard, Shifnal on 7th November 2021. Hazy golden body, white head. It's fairly 'slick' in texture. The aroma is all about tropical fruits and coconuts. The taste is also fruity and coconutty. My sweet tooth really enjoyed it.

Can from KWM. Appearance - cloudy yellow to brown. Big creamy white head. Nose - pineapple and orange. Minerally note. Taste - a bit dirty yeastiness on the finish, after a citrus middle part. Then quite resinous. Palate - light to medium bodied, bitter finish. Overall - interesting but slightly unbalanced!
