This dark IPA is brewed in collaboration with The Beer Beauty, aka broadcaster and journalist Marverine Cole. A tropical burst from Galaxy and Motueka hops coupled with the addition of fresh mango contrasts with roast malt flavours and a bitterness that dances around the tongue.

Brewed in collaboration with Marverine Cole, using Galaxy and Montueka hops.
Poured from a 330ml bottle into a Fullers snifter glass.
Pours a dark reddy/orange colour with a small head.
Smells of caramel like malts and fruity, citrusy hops.
Tastes very tropical, fruits like mango from the hops, and roasted caramel/toffee malts. An overriding bitterness from the hops and a quite a nice full mouthfeel.
Overall i'm quite pleasantly surprised by this brew. I wasn't expecting much from Brains but this is not only original but tasty too.
