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 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

Bottle. Pours hazy dark amber with small white head. Aroma is malt, caramel, herbs, flowers and hints of redcurrants. Taste is very sweet, medium to very bitter and light acidic. Body is oily with fizzy carbonation. Finish is long and rich with sweet and bitter notes of malt, caramel, tropical fruit, plums and tawny port wine.

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!
