Are you the type who likes to wake up before the sun for first tracks?

Well then, consider this hazy delight your morning breakfast juice* to get you going. It's packed with tropical passionfruit and pineapple flavours, with notes of peach, pear and sweet citrus.

Hops used: Amarillo, El Dorado, BRU-1, Galaxy.

*Not actually juice. Definitely beer.

Received for Christmas 2022 and drunk a few days later.

L: The beer is a dull-looking thick, creamy pineapple yellow, with a thick, brilliant-white head.

S: On the nose, there's mild, tropical fruit and spicy, piney hops, but surprisingly not a lot else.

T: The tropical hops come through much more in the taste compared to the aroma, with an emphasis on guava and maybe peach. Piney hops are prominent. It's more bitter and less tropical than the can's blurb would have me believe There's a little bit of hop burn but it's manageable and doesn't detract from the experience.

M: Mouthfeel is smooth and carbonic prickle is minimal. All is to spec here.

O: This one didn't deliver the tropical fruit basket I would expect from a DDH hazy IPA, so is marked down accordingly.

Cheers!
