Spur is a massive in-house favourite here at Polly’s with Arron routinely naming it as his favourite beer that we produce, and the proof is in the pudding – the hop bill of Azacca, Citra and Simcoe bounces with Um-Bongo levels of tropical flavour, featuring a full on fruit salad of papaya, peach, tangerine and mango on both the nose and flavour. Slathered with our LA3 yeast culture for massive hop suspension, this is a beer that is 100% hazy, dank, and juicy.

- Can. Azacca, Simcoe and Citra hops. The description may already say that, but who knows now the latest RB fuckup is truncating the description? Hazy gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Smooth and somewhat airy palate, decent fine carbonation. Softish and semi dry pale malts, a very light creamy sweetness. Tropical fruit hops are pleasing, light and slightly floral. Not getting a big Azacca hit here, more is the pity! Pine and mild citrus. Light finish. Another very nice LP IPA, the only downside is the similarly to 'Petal' despite the differing hops.

Can picked up at M&F Bottleshop, and shared at home - big deep hazy opaque orange coloured pour with a good white head. Vibrant juicy fruity action with bold grapefruit and pithy orange hits, some notes of mango and papaya, proper substantial fruity mouthfeel and medium body, touch of green hop burn into the robust dank hoppy finish. Lovely.
