Mango and passion fruit. Murky yellow pour with good head and lacing. Some caramel and booze, but not too much, considering it's a triple IPA. Pineapple. Light boozy sweet finish with a little bitterness. Tap at Tripping Animals.

750ml bottle - from Tavour. Enjoyed this - Kolsch can be kinda boring, but this had a classic German feel and tasted very fresh
