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.

Shared BOTTLE 75 CL. Fruity tart hops, quite dank. Low on malts, a tad watery, dank light bitterness. Fresh and clean. 8-4-7-3-15=3.7

BOTTLE 75 CL - BB 22-APR-2016. Clear amber, big head. Aroma: tangerine and grapefruit zest, light sweetness and just touch of overripe fruit. Taste: light sweetness and pretty assertive rotten fruit, which makes it feel kinda muddy and unfresh, robust dry bitter finish. A bit watery but smooth and free of astringency. Not bad, but guess I need a fresher bottle. 7-4-6-3-13=3.3

Hazy pale golden with a lasting white head. Hoppy aroma of citrus and tropical fruit with floral notes, along with a nice malty touch of fresh grain. Dryish, fruity hoppy flavour with a lovely malt character in the background. Light bitter finish

Noe tåkete lys brun med høyt hvitt skum. Lukter humle, lett bitterhet og godt med fruktig sødme. Søtbitter avslutning.

750ml bottle, thank you Ryan! Pours deep golden with a medium white head. Amazing hoppy notes, grapefruit, pine, impressive freshness. Flavour is perfectly balanced, light malt profile with a good bitter end. Medium body, medium carbonation. What a surprise!
