This little firework of tropical fruits is a juicy, dry hopped pale ale. A superb blend of big American hops that creates a bold distinct brew. It’s packed with pine, floral and pineapple hop flavours and aromas. A light malt base with a touch of dextrin malt, locks in the hop character and boost mouthfeel.

Taste comprises citric pith, bitter orange, chalky mineral bite, light spice and herb. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, drying close spiked with grassy hop bitterness. Passable APA but nothing I’d rush back for.
