For this Spree Series we'll brew a bunch of beer's that are purely experimental and fun, and not to be taken seriously. Unless you like serious...
For this fruited IPA we've gone down the green route again, this time with watermelon. The El Dorado hops bring a natural watermelon sweetness, with a citrus bite courtesy of fresh grapefruit. Pours bright green and finishes with a smooth, hoppy flavour.

330ml can - Pours an almost clear lime cordial green colour with a small frothy pale green head. The aroma is bubblegum and watermelon. A moderately bitter taste, bubblegum, cucumber and watermelon flavours with a synthetic like sweetness and a metallic aftertaste. I don't mind the green colour it just isn't good as a beer to drink.

Draught @ SKAAL Sønderborg. Pours nearly clear poisonous green with airy white-greenish head. Clear aroma of fruit and lozenges, with mild estery notes. Bitter, hoppy flavour with notes of yeast and synthetic juice, maybe even meant to taste like a watermelon, with a few cucumbers of yesteryear thrown in for a good measure. Bitter, somewhat metallic aftertaste with perfumy hints. Absolutely riveting. If it wasn’t St. Paddy’s Day, I’d probably run away screaming.

Draft. A green beer with a greenish head. The aroma has notes of watermelon, lemons, and hints of malt. The flavor is sweet with notes of watermelon, straw, and lemons, leading to a dry finish.
