Inspired by our travels to continental beaches in Europe and slightly more tropical days in the Dutch Antilles we wanted to brew a beer inspired by the island of Curaçao which would enable explorers to take life a little less seriously. Sailors who fell ill on Dutch trading ships were left on the Island of Curaçao as they passed, upon their return they found the sailors had miraculously recovered. Our Tropical Ale uses the secrets of the island’s vitamin C rich Curaçao orange to create the most replenishing of beers that will quench the thirst of sun filled days.

Bottiglia trasparente. Il gusto al naso è indirizzato verso il fruttato. L'olfatto viene stimolato in maniera normale e l'esistenza olfattiva è sufficiente. Il cappello di schiuma resiste abbastanza. La grandezza delle bollicine è medio-fine. Il liquido è di consistenza limpida. Bollicine medio-fini costituiscono anche la forma della frizzantezza. Il colore è giallo dorato brillante. Il corpo è rotondo. L'amaro è contenuto e c'è anche una componente moderatamente acidula. La forza gustativa è elevata e permane in maniera sufficiente. Le sensazioni boccali finali risultano di birra beverina. Il finale è acidulo e bruschino. Il retrogusto è di media intensità. Al gusto vengono donati toni di miele, frutta secca, agrumi, arancia amara e mandarino.

Bottle from a local supermarket. Aroma is fruity with some citrus, modest tropical notes, orange, touch of grain. Flavour is light to moderate bitter, body is light. Drinkable.

Donkergeel toto oranje bier met mooie schuimkraag. Smaak is fruitig, zeker niet zoet, met iets van sinaasappel en abrikoos. Niet onaardig, zeker niet slecht omdat de smaak absoluut niet chemisch overkomt.

Tight white head on hazy golden coloured body. Mango & tangerine aroma. Medium to thin bodied, foamy & lifeless on the back. Tangerine, mango, herbal, grain & some weird pulped fruit tastes. Very poor.

Fles gekregen van Sander, geprobeerd met LiekevdV. Het is een licht troebel goudgeel bier met een volle witte schuimkraag. Het heeft een fruitige geur met tonen van sinaasappel en een vreemd zuurtje. De smaak is moutig en sinaasappel achtig.

Bonus bottle from Appie. Pours a golden colour and a firm rocky white head with good retention. Aroma's of soft sweet tropical fruit and some grain/malt. Retronasal it's sweet & sour fruit, perfumey. Flavour is light sour, fruity, grainish. Light bodied. Not much of an aftertaste. Nice on a warm Summer's day like this, but only then.
