Boom: Krush, Sabro, and Mosaic hops – each used as T90, Cryo, and HyperBoost HopOil. This combination gives Pencil its full-on tropical character. Bright guava notes from Krush, creamy coconut and vanilla from an outstanding batch of Sabro, and that unmistakable Mosaic punch for good balance. Fermented with a thiolized yeast for a rounded mouthfeel and elegant white wine aromas. A slightly sweeter IPA, rich in flavor with a soft bitterness for a dangerously drinkable experience.

Can at home. Hazy golden with big white head, hard to pour. Gooseberries, grapes, kiwi, star fruit, kumquat, oats, coconut, light bread crust, sugar. Over medium sweet, light bitter. Medium bodied. Nice stuff, but like most Moersleutel IPAs it's very sugary.

Draft at Lemmy’s Leiden. Poured a hazy yellow golden colour with a lasting frothy white head. The aroma is grainy, light tropical citrus. The flavour is moderate sweet and bitter, with a crisp, super fresh, juicy guava, light coconut, dry, light spicy hop bitter palate. Medium bodied with average carbonation. Tasty and flavourful. Very moreish.
