Hops | Summit, Sabro & Idaho-7 |

Beer notes
Pouring beautifully bright gold, this splendid IPA aims to bridge both East-Coast and West-Coast IPAs – the powerful aroma of coconut, stonefruit and grapefruit that greets you as you pour the pint or pop the top off a bottle is reminiscent of the juiciest of New England IPAs, but this joyous amalgam of fruit and sweet malt is backed by a decidedly West-Coast style bitterness, which leads to a beautiful balance. Definitely a beer to savour!
Also available as a bottle beer.
