Eyes closed, mouth open, chunky gulp of golden ambrosia, Boom...you're in a tropical paradise (for extra impact, scatter hot sand about your feet.) This exceptional Pale Ale is dry-hopped into oblivion to deliver a mighty smash of grapefruit, lychee, passionfruit, mango and pineapple (seriously).

Hazy gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Palate is light and semi dry and crispy. Light dry malt base, little sweetness. Nice Citra hops - good tangerine and orange with lesser lemon and pink grapefruit. Light finish. Nice fruity delivery of Citra here, highly drinkable.

Cask @ Trades Club, Hebden Bridge. Hazy amber with a small head. Has lots of smooth tasting tropical fruits in both aroma and taste, reminiscent of the Rubicon series of tropical fruit juice cartons. Lychee apparent but some guava too with a very light citrus background.

500ml Bottle - Amber with a slight haze. Passion fruit, mango and pineapple in the aroma. Pineapple, grapefruit, gooseberries and mango all feature in the hoppy taste.
