Tropical Milkshake IPA
A cocktail of US big hitters here delivers everything from bright citrus, pine and heavy dank more-ishness in combo with a bucket load of (actual!) tropical fruit! A luxurious creamy mouthfeel completes the picture.

Bottle from Beer 52. Appearance - cloudy yellow with a thin head. Nose - papaya up front. Mango and something citrus too. Taste - big papaya again. Ripe melon. Palate - light to medium bodied with a creamy middle. Nice taper on the finish. Overall - good.

Bottle from Beer 52. It pours hazy golden orange with a medium white head. The aroma is sweet, juicy, quite bright, mango smoothie, passion fruit, papaya and custard creams. The taste is dry, bitter, tart tropical vibes, mango, passion fruit, papaya, pithy, zesty, light tannin, some rawness, green hops, touch of green veg fruit smoothy, some creaminess and lingering spice through the finish. Medium body and fine, foamy carbonation. Tastes doesn't live up to the aroma. Fruity, but just a touch harsh also. Decent enough.

Bottle. Nose is tropical, big pineapple, lime, guava. Taste is sweet, tropical, mango, hint of pineapple, lemon, strawberry, leading to a grapefruit and pine finish. Mouthfeel is reasonably thick. Decent, but pulls it's punches.

33cl bottle from the Beer52 box for April. A hazy amber pour with a billowing cream head; slightly mute tropical fruit aroma; but a full-on tropical fruit taste with lots of juicy mango and a smooth fruity body; then some resinous bitterness that cuts through the sweetness of the fruit. Rather good.
