So, you’re one of these people that’s stuck in your own bubble and fail to see past the end of your own nose? Well get stuck into this juice bomb of an IPA with bags of Galaxy and Citra hops with a decent hit of real fruits and lactose for a creamy mouthfeel. This hazy reality is better than you thought, eh?

Can from Gedeelde Vreugde. Pours hazy orange with an unstable, frothy, off-white head. Aroma of ripe mango, tangerine, passionfruit, fruit-flavoured yoghurt, pineapple. Taste has sweet mango, tangerine, sourish passionfruit, a thick yoghurty-doughy malty bakcobone with a hint of lactose. Bit more bitter thanks to floral hops in the finish, juicy mango & tangerine peel in conclusion. Medium body, fluffy texture, soft carbonation. Always a delight these brews, if balanced, and that's the case here.

20/III/20 - 44cl can from a trade, shared @ home, BB: 22/VIII/20 (2020-272) Thanks to Lee B. for the trade and the drop-off!
Pretty cloudy beige beer, lots of green brownish slimy hop (?) chunks, small dense creamy white head, stable, bit adhesive. Aroma: nice, lots of tropical fruits, some bubble gum, mango, pineapples, some passion fruits, hint of vanilla, peach flavoured candy. MF: ok carbon, medium body. Taste: sweet start, bit sugary, soft bitterness, lots of peach flavoured candy, some vanilla, hint of citrus. Aftertaste: still pretty sweet, more of that peach flavoured candy, some mango, soft acidity, nice, but a little too artificial to be truly great.

8/8/2019. Cask at the 2019 Great British Beer Festival. Pours slightly hazy dark gold with a small bubbly off-white head. Aroma of sweet fruit, boiled sweets, hops and lactose. Heavy sweetness and light bitterness. Medium body, sticky texture, soft carbonation. Late bitterness developed but too sweet and a bit artificial.
