“This one’s got the same base as our OG recipe with a little spin. Bru-1 hops bring in a bit more citrus to mingle with Citra and a touch of pine to balance it all out.”

Glassware: IPA.

Appearance: Hazy pastel yellow with a frothy four finger head forming on top. It takes an age to reduce and leaves a smattering of lace on the glass.

Aroma: Proper summery vibes on this one. Really light, refreshing and zesty citrus overtones with freshly picked pine needle, pineapple, green mango, unripened peach and a very subtle touch of lemongrass and thyme. There’s something uniquely Australian about this…which is strange as it has no Aussie hops and it’s brewed in the States. Dunno, we dig it but.

Flavour: Again, super light and effortless to drink. Although all the flavours are delicate it still has a lot on display – zesty lemon and lime, fresh pine needle, a range of unripened tropical fruits like mango, pineapple and peach which roll into more of a pithy and herbaceous finish which draws out nicely.

Mouthfeel: Crisp, zippy and light on. Light-moderate body and an energetic Co2. The 5.7% ABV surprised us a little but it’s actually perfectly weighted.

Overall: Our 2nd entry for Aslin and we must say it’s notably better than the first. It’s well into session territory and the light refreshing nature of it emphasises that even further. Solid.
