Inspired by the island life, we created an IPA completely disconnected from the mainland. We used our one-of-a-kind Hop Torpedo to deliver an intense rush of hop flavor and the lush aromas of mango, papaya, and passionfruit with every sip. Enjoy our tropical twist on the American IPA.

Bottle at Big Texas Beer Fest. Pours a hazy orange gold with medium off white head. The aroma is tropical fruit and resin. Medium body, juicy grapefruit, mango, light bitter finish, very good.

Bottle, at Både Vått & Tørt. It pours a two-finger white head over a clear dark golden colored body. The aroma is piney and grapefruity, with canned tropical fruit mix. Rather low on maltyness both in aroma and flavor. It has a fine bitterness, it's full-bodied and lightly warming, with a pleasant carbonation. Pine cones, grapefruit, tropical fruit mix and a touch of sweetness in the flavor. Long fruity finish. A pleasant beer, but I prefer the regular Torpedo. 190810

Lõhnast saan millegi pärast münti ja puuvilju, maitse on suht seebine. Taustal on ka vanakooli IPA-t aga see on ikka pettumus. Tavaline torpedo on hea isegi kui pole väga värske...

Fluffy white head stayed on an unclear light amber coloured still body. Peach & confectionery aroma. Medium bodied, soft to the fore with a very sharp back & clean aft. Mango, peach, hoppy & tangy tastes with bitter citrussy finish. Standard.

Pours to a nice off-red yellow with a good lasting head. Intense nose of citrus and grapefruit. Fantastic mouth with the matching taste of citrus and grapefruit with long lasting fruit and hoppy bitterness. Like this a lot!
