Review and Tasting

Sampled on 14/12/2016

Appearance:

(sample bottle BBE Aug/17) Hazy, deep golden amber with thick retentive off white head with good lacing.

Aroma:

Ripe peach and passion fruit, crusty white bread, and fragrant hops.

Taste:

Medium to full-bodied. White bread crust, more passion fruit and ripe peach with assertive hops. Nicely balanced.

Aftertaste:

Tropical fruit and bready malt gives way to lingering bitter hops.

Overall:

A big beer, with malt, hops and rich tropical fruit all dialled up and presented well-balanced. Hoppy but not a hop bomb of a double IPA.
