Chinook, Columbus and Mosaic Hops. Blend of Pale ale malt, wheat, and Cara malts for depth of flavour. A truly spellbinding big punchy American hop flavour brew with citrus tropical fruit flavours and aromas.

Bottle courtesy of the brewery (thank you very much!) consumed at home Wednesday 21st December 2016 Hazy orangey gold in colour with a huge foamy white head. The aroma is a little unusual, it’s clearly fruity and perhaps leans towards tropical but with a little plasticy edge to it. Lovely hoppy burst in the mouth, a soft carbonation, pleasant bittersweet balance but with a swift dry finish. Leans more to lemony in the mouth, a little pithy edge, really decent IPA, ok so it might have a little way to go before it challenges some of the UKs best, but for a new brewery it’s a damn good start.
