TURTLE is a west coast pale. We’ve given this westie a decent malt profile from the caramel biscuit grist and balanced it with some pine, resin, and bitterness from Centennial hops. Idaho 7 and a little bit of Citra give it the higher citrus notes.
This one’s a nod to our dad, who looks, moves, and is in fact a real-life turtle. Brewed alongside our Black IPA WITCH, which is a nod to mum. Thanks for all the support, missing you both very much!
Keep it slow, keep it steady.

Can ordered from A Hoppy Place, Windsor. Aroma combines stonefruit and pine. Clear copper gold. Foamy white head. Heavy bitterness. Resinous. Piney. Spicey edge. Vague hints of underlying juice. Light bodied. Thin if slick. Fizzy carbonation. Abrupt dry finish. Definitely West Coast. Mandy hasn't let Turtle see the kids since she kicked him out. But no quinine. Good stuff.

440ml can – Pours a lightly hazed orange gold colour with a small white head that settled. The aroma is fruity, citrus, tropical and some resiny pine notes. A moderately sweet taste, pale malts, fruity citrus and light resiny flavours with a sweetish citrus and moderate bitter finish. A bit watery but okay.
