Though it’s based on an English Pale Ale, we tried to create a summer beer that would combine an intense aroma and high drinkability, while keeping a full-body, ideal for warm summer evenings.
We use Galaxy, a hop charged by the Australian sun, that, together with Citra, give the beer its intense aroma of tropical fruit. For bitterness we used the Apollo hop.

Bottle sample at a tasting at Alexey and Refaela’s place. Thanks Alexey and Refaela. Clear golden with a white head. Wonderful hoppy aroma full of tropical fruits, citrus and some "green" notes. Flavor has faint sweetness, lots of fruity and "green" hops and a moderately bitter finish. Medium-bodied. Really good and extremely refreshing.

Bottle, 75cl, shared by Gunnar. It pours an almost clear golden body under a big collapsing off-white head. The aroma has peaches and some pine cones, oranges too. Not much malts going on. The flavor has a nice bitterness along with citrus, pine cones and a little malty sweetness. Full too medium body and a pleasant carbonation level. A nice bitterness too, all the way. Lasting finish. Sure a beer I could have a few of on a hot summer day. 140305

Fra fat på T-Anker, Praha 7 Sep 13. Lys gylden. Litt uklar. Litt filigranser. Kjempegod ferskenaroma. Smaken er rik på frukt. Plommer & fersken. Avslutter tørt & fruktig. Veldig bra!
