What the brewers say

“Our juicy, DDH love letter to Sabro hops. Huge notes of citrus, coconut, and overripe tropical fruit.”

What our panel thought

“Sweet honey grass, fresh-cut coconut, melon, candied tropical fruits. Lovely aroma. Fruit flavors to rival a smoothie: papaya, mango, yogurt-covered dried fruit pieces, sugarcane, breezy sea grass, and floral touches. A little sweet on the body with a pungent floral aspect that reaches a crescendo. A bold bitterness cushions the sweetness.”

What our editors thought

“Thai-like sweetness and spice in the aroma with a touch of lemongrass, coconut, and overripe lychee, alongside a woody undertone. Quirky in the flavor, as an acidic tinge takes the fruit on an unexpected journey, with pithy tropical bitterness and a sunny-but-not-sweet disposition. It’s a left-field approach that feels challenging yet accessible.”
