The flavoursome bottled Craft Shipwreck IPA is an Indian Pale Ale that is big and hoppy with lots of sweet tropical fruit notes. Not too bitter on the forefront with mellowed hop aromas due to long conditioning periods. A refreshing, tropical fruit aroma with a mellow floral hop character which leads to a dense hoppy body. A good bitterness develops alongside ripe, fruity notes, mellowing into a sweet finish.
Pay homage to a proper local hero and raise a glass of Shipwreck IPA to young John Honey. Johnny risked his life for five stricken sailors. It's the true spirit of St Andrews.

33cl from Stockbridge Market. Appearance -golden steady bubbles nice head. Nose - toffee and some cooked apples. Taste - resin then more cooked apples. Some pith bitterness kicking in at the end. Palate - medium bodied with a creamy texture and a long drying finish. Overall - good beer probably in the traditional British ipa style. It continued to grow on me through the glass.
