DESCRIPTION
Karōshi is our first solo Double IPA and we wanted to go big with it. Full of Nelson Saving, El Dorado and Mouteka giving those big hitting citrusy, juicy notes. An organic yeast strain from Portland blended with a wild saccaromyces strain add a funky edge to the brew.
Artwork: Karōshi’s name can be translated as “overwork death”. Simon and JT brewed this beer whilst going through our biggest expansion yet.

Tap. Leeds International Beer Festival. Thick as a bag, murky gold. Foamy, thick, mucky white head. Nose has pineapple. Some pine needle. Baked citrus. Some minty, floral herb. Taste has a malty sweetness. Sticky, resinous bitterness. Sticky mouthfeel. Low carbonation. Light resinous finish. Decent, albeit a bit sweet for me.

Keg at GH. It pours murky blonde - gold with a massive white head. The aroma is sweet, juicy, fragrant, pungent weed, bubblegum, orange marmalade, peach, sweat and spice. The taste is crisp, dry, green, weedy action, herbal, lowish - moderate bitterness, bit dank, pine needles, ripe tropical fruits, pretty juicy, boozy bite, spice, straw, bit of spice and resin with a drying finish. Medium body and moderate, foamy carbonation. Pretty punchy stuff with lots going on. Boost level high.
