Beach Bum is made for drinking in the sun – or if that’s not possible, then reminiscing about drinking in the sun. Inspired by travelling up the coast of California and lazy days hanging around Venice Beach in LA enjoying fruity pale ales at the Venice Ale House, we created this beer to bring sunshine to any glass, anytime, anywhere.
Beach Bum is a West Coast Pale Ale that uses a blend of citrus forward hops to create flavours tangerine, grapefruit and orange. We rotate the variety of hops from batch-to-batch depending on freshness and availability. The four different types of grain give the beer a medium bodied mouth feel which, when combined with the hops, produces a well-rounded fruity pale ale.

(Cask at Oliver Twist, Stockholm, 6 Jan 2019) Golden colour with frothy, off-white head. Fruity, hoppy nose with tropical fruit, citrus, grass, floral hops and dried pineapple. Fruity, hoppy taste with notes of tropical fruit, mango, apricots, floral hops and a balanced bitterness. Medium body, with a certain sweetness. Tasty and refreshing. Quite nice.

On cask at Newcastle Tap. Shared with Finn. A pearl white head to a bright amber-golden coloured body, spotty lacing. Grassy nose, mid-sweet. Mixed taste of lemony hops and a backdrop of toffee. Ends bittersweet. Fair enough. (08.02.2019).

Cask at CBC, Covent Garden on 7th October 2018. Clear amber with shallow whitish foam and partial lacing. Mild citrus hop aroma. Sweet fruits in-mouth and a sweet, fruity finish. Light bodied for its strength, with a smooth, somewhat watery mouthfeel.
