We’re shaking things up in this Double Dry Hopped IPA! Starting with tropical hops, backed by kiwi & passionfruit, and smoothed out with oats & sweet malt, this beer is one of our most intense Tidal Series brews to date. Make no mistake, this fruit bomb packs a tropical punch!

Murky orange colour. Aroma of citrus fruit with a kiss of tropical. Ok body, some residual sugars but can't say it's sweet, and huge bitter citrus peel character (think grapefruit peel), a bit of acidity, bold bitterness (from the fruit?).
I wouldn't call this an IPA, more of a sour/fruit ale. Decent.

Dullish haze. Just a thin head. Attractive guava aroma, with lychee and gooseberry. Just a touch of yeastiness, though it’s quite cold so that could change. Actually quite tart bit just tastes like a bright, happy dh sour. There are no such sours on the menu so I’ll take it at face value.
