Glassware: IPA glass.

Appearance: Probably one of the cloudiest we’ve seen to date…it’s like a beer milkshake! It holds on to a loose head which struggles to produce much lace as we go.

Aroma: The mere fact that the 10% AbV is completely hidden is one thing but the juice factor here is out of this world. We get straight up breakfast juice, hell we’d even skull this with our west bix! It’s just incredible…tonnes of mango, apple, orange, banana, peach, apricot, guava, pineapple, the list could go on and on. This is the ultimate NEIPA aroma.

Flavour: Wooooooowww. How do they do it?! Every juicy tropical fruit under the sun teams up here; we’re talking mango, melon, orange, apricot, papaya, guava, pineapple, peach, lychee and apple. You can pretty much forget anything else in the beer as the juice train flies through to the finish and then some.

Mouthfeel: Super light for its size (10% AbV). The texture is smooth, creamy, chalky and presents a lovely density. Co2 is spot on.

Overall: This would have to be one of, if not the best, NEIPA’s we’ve ever had. The level of juice, the minimal bitterness, the crazy well hidden AbV and just the overall drink-ability is second to none. Top of its class!
