A hoppy blonde ale brewed with pale ale and lager malts, and Citra, Amarillo, Mosaic and Summer hops. A burst of tropical fruit aromas leads to flavours of peach and sweet grapefruit to produce a refreshing beer with a balanced bitterness.

26th Aug 2015, half-pint hand-pulled from the Brain’s Brewery Bar at the Peterborough Beer Festival. Blond and dry natured brew with some pink grapefruit and tropical fruit notes in both the nose and taste. Decent enough, but not too exciting to be honest.
