The newest member of our Mettle group is Death Mettle a Triple IPA in a devilishly drinkable disguise. Combining the hop bills of both Mettle and Heavy Mettle, we've created this intensely hop-saturated experience to pair perfectly with the ghosts and goblins of Halloween.

Pouring a thick, hazy golden yellow, Death Mettle opens with concentrated aromas of juicy mango, pineapple, orange zest, and mixed stone fruit. Full-bodied, extremely tropical, and plush on the palate, this beer is built to satisfy the most chilling of hop cravings.

Panda thanks to Wingman. Hazy orange gold beer, small bubbly pale cream colour head. Smooth palate, decent fine carbonation coming through late on. Smooth and mildly dry creamy sweet malts. Smooth pine and mild hop spice. Fair amount of Galaxy juiciness here. Savoury skunk underpins. Airy and semi dry finish. Good but it doesn't blow me away like Trillium of old. Not sure if that is me or if other brewers have caught up and passed em. Still a very solid brew.

Tap at Ale Arsenal. Pours a densely hazed sunset orange with off white massive pineapple aroma with all tropics in reserve. Overt pineapple, tropics and rind flavor. So good.

Pours a lovely opaque hazy golden orange from a can. Nice big tropical fruit/orange smoothie aroma, similar flavor, unctuous in a positive sense. Feels big in the mouth but then has a weird transition to a surprisingly bitter finish, it's not bad I just feel like it's not smooth. Very good beer.

From a 473ml can on 5/3/2023. Pours a murky medium golden with a smallish head. Has a strong citrus/tropical fruit nose with some green and herbal notes. It’s bold and intense on the sip - sweet citrus dominating but with touches of melon, mango and grape also in the mix. Has a really firm bitterness, which is spicy, tangy, herbal and lingering with a hint of grapefruit in the background. Has a silky, almost creamy mouthfeel and moderate carbonation. Challenging, complex and truly excellent.
