A classic hop-fest that fuses tropical flavours to recreate the intensity of a double IPA. The fantastic blend of US hops combine to give pineapple, citrus, pine and stone fruit aromas underpinned by a pine and herby flavour – topped off with an unapologetic slap of mango – to make this the ultimate summer thirst quencher

It's tough being on the wagon for a bit, but it does mean I try more AF beers. And this is a good one! Nice pour and looks like a beer in the glass. Really bitter hops flavour which is right up my street. One of the best AF I've had.

Golden pour with a white that did not last that long; aromas are quite sweet and floral - tropical fruits, sweet citrus, some pine. Taste adds herbs and hops for a decent bitter finish. Not bad at all for an AF.

33 cl can @ Hirvihuhta, BBE 15.08.2022 A gusher. Aroma has fruit candy, minerals and toffee. Flaviur had odd plastic vibes, toffee candy, grapefruit. Somewhat resiny. Good, a tad too sweet though

33cl can. Poured almost clear and golden with a fizzy head. Nice hoppy flavors, some wort notes. Refreshing, could well drink again.

Hoppy and bitter, a bit malty. Citrus, some tropical fruit, dry and bitter. Decent body for a nonalc, nice.

Can at home in Hackney - picked up from Clapton Craft. Pours clear gold with a fluffy, white head. Lightly sweet with some tea vibes, pale grains, lemon peel, pine needles. Light bodied with fine to average carbonation. A bit more rind to finish ish, damp hay, pale grains. So so.

330ml can from Cat in the Glass, on the train from Peterborough back to Darlington. Gluten Free. Amber colour, bubbly white foam head and aroma of citrusy hop. Taste is malt, caramel, fruity with citrusy hop bitterness. Light bodied, soft carbonation, dry bitter finish. Quite drinkable

330ml can as part of a delivery from the brewery. Man, this gushed everywhere. But I was able to save about two thirds of it. Light gold and clear. Caramel, overripe tangerines in the aroma. Bittersweet taste with a gritty astringent finish. Some nice hoppy flavours in there but they are overtaken by the astringency. Not terrible but not all that interesting either.
