Brew York - L.A. Juice Forsyth Fruited IPA
It's not New York, it's York and it's not Los Angeles, it's Low Alcohol. Having cleared that up (!) this 440 ml can offers up a 0.5% ABV fruited IPA; "fruited" because it contains both pineapple and mango. Also in the mix are barley, wheat, oats, lactose (from milk) and the hops are Citra and Mosaic. Once in the glass the beer is opaque and the head soon disappears. Mango hits powerfully as you take in the aroma. Unsurprisingly, the main flavours are pineapple and mango, a veritable blast of tropical fruits. It's rather gassy (despite the quick loss of the head), whilst the finish is quite citric - maybe grapefruit and tangerine to the fore. Overall the fruity mix of ingredients creates a satisfying beer; didn't they do well!
