Panda thanks to Wingers. A mild to medium haze on this gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Light smooth palate, semi dry, decent fine minerally carbonation. Light smooth pale malts, a good light creamy sweetness. Soft pine. Obvious pineapple, mildly ripe. Hoppy citrus comes a second by a long way but makes a decent fist of it, bright and juicy enough. Touch of mango. Light and semi dry finish. Yeah, its a nice fruity dipa and if I was stuck in the pub all evening and this was the only craft beer on tap, I certainly wouldn't complain. Well until I woke very cold on park bench somewhere. Again . But, much like that other Track dipa aged on coconut - why bother when you have great modern hops that impart pineapple flavours? And, that would be, imho, much more sympatico with the other hops used here. Don't know!

Intense fruity aroma and taste and a plethora of citrus and tropical fruit delivered, bright juicy pineapple, grapefruit, splash of lemon, honeydew melon, oat laden dense malty backbone, dank hoppy finish. One of the best of these Track 10yr brews for me.
