A tropical IPA using house Golden Promise, Oats and Wheat for body and a little Caramalt for residual sweetness. Judiciously hopped with Simcoe, Ekuanot, HBC 438, Huell Melon and Motueka in whirlpool and dry hop. The hops adding flavours and aromas of passionfruit, melon and lime. Fermented with Brett Trois for a pineapple/mango aroma and a lightly tart and refreshing finish.

500ml can. Hazy orange appearance with a medium white head lasting the duration of the beer. Aroma is certainly very tropical, melon, peach, passionfruit, mango. Taste has those same fruits, quite sweet but finishes with bitter orange peel, unripe fruits. Medium body, slick mouthfeel, soft carbonation.

Can. Beer Central, Sheffield. Glowing, deep gold. Soft haze. Thin white head, that has some legs. Nose has lots of ripe fruit. Notes of peach, grapefruit, and melon. Backdrop of pissy, piny dank. Taste is medium, skunky bitter, with some ripe sweetness. Medium body, feeling a little slick. Foamy carbonation. Finish has rising, lingering bitterness, with some of that promised tartness. Works well. Good gear.
