East 2018 is part of our compass serie. For this year we have decided to brew a session New England IPA of 4,3%. the recipe is based on our Juice Punch serie but with a different hop variety. The hops (Ekuanot, Citra & Simcoe) gives the beer a very yellow tropical fruit flavour and taste. Easy drinkable and nice to enjoy during the nice weather that is waiting for us!

Bottle at home in garden from DeBierkonig, 22nd June 18. Pours a lovely cloudy yellow orange. Aroma is tropical fruit, citrus. Taste is full, loads of juicy fruity hops, some nice bitterness included. Very good session IPA, loads of flavour for the extreme low ABV
