A beer whose wort is mixed with real grapefruit puree to allow the sugar to ferment out, leaving the tropical aromas behind. This beer is a real crowd-pleaser. It’s perfect for any moment or meal, thanks to its bold grapefruit flavour, tart character and light hoppiness.

Bottle 33 cl. Pours a hazy, deep golden with a lacing, off-white head. Fresh, citrusy nose - although I may not be able to pinpoint grapefruit in particular. Medium body, a dry fruitiness with some neat, citrusy hop accents. Thankfully brewed with a neutral yeast, that doesn't conflict with the hops. Bitter finish. 111121

33cl Fles van Landmarkt / Ranzijn. Troebel donkergoud / amber kleur, witte kraag. Aroma van grapefruit en sinaasappelmarmelade, hars, mout, smaak volgt, lekker fris en degelijk bitter. Beter dan de standaard IPA.

Bottle. Slightly cloudy dark orange feat. an ok white head. Aroma and taste are grapefruits galore and then some. Also malts. Loooong lasting bitterness. Medium carbonation. Very refreshing. The wife does approve.

Bottle, 5%. Very fruity aroma, quite caramelly and spicy. Almost clear amber colour. Very big stable off-white head. Slow gusher, but very persistent. The bitterness is a lot like that from grapefruit, but I get more yeast and spicy hop flavour along with caramel than any real grapefruit flavour.

Bottle. Pours hazy amber with profuse, rocky off-white head. clear aroma of malt and yeast, with grassy and citric hints. Bitter, hoppy flavour with clear notes of grapefruit and grassy touches and sweetish hints of yeast and malt. Bitter, grassy and citric aftertaste with estery notes. Reasonable.
