Bold, bright hops are at the forefront of this soft and creamy IPA. Aromas of honeydew melon, ripe peaches and juicy tropical fruits burst right out of the glass, thanks to a generous dosing of Krush, Citra and experimental HBC1019. The hops also act to balance the sweetness of oats and milk sugar, which contribute a soft, smooth mouthfeel. Luscious, dank, moreish.

Medium bodied, smooth with a dry back. Mango, grape, passion fruit & lime tastes with a bitterly hopped finish. Cracking.

Can. A light haze on this gold beer, small and short lived bubbly pale cream colour head. Light palate, mildly dry, good fine minerally carbonation. Light smooth pale malts, a nice light sweetness. HBC1019 is unmistakable with is Sabro and limey Sorachi vibes. Citra, so often a dominant hop, battered into near submission, just a little citrus on the end. Finishes light with hop spice starting to nibble. A little hard not to chug!
