High Five

Tap to rate

High Five is a pale ale that cuts with immediate crispness, light on the palate yet structurally present. Ripe peach, lychee and lemongrass fold into a profile that feels delicate and flavourful at once — not thin, but genuinely drinkable. The mouthfeel carries more weight than the alcohol suggests, giving it a rounded body without heaviness. An ale for the long afternoon, when you want flavour without fatigue. Serve cool.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with crisp, fresh stone fruit notes—ripe peach and lychee dominate the mid-range, supported by subtle herbal lemongrass and green leafy hop character. Beneath lies a clean, understated malt base with no yeast-driven cloudiness or oxidation; the overall impression is bright and inviting without aggressive intensity.

◐ Taste

Entry is crisp and immediate, with the tropical stone fruit and citrus notes establishing presence without heaviness. The mid-palate reveals a rounded, fuller body than the 5% ABV suggests, balancing the delicate fruit profile with subtle hop bitterness and a light, clean malt structure. The finish remains dry and composed, neither thin nor cloying.

Serve at 7–10°C

Cold enough to sharpen the hop aroma without numbing the palate. Around 7–9°C keeps the citrus and pine vivid without losing bitterness definition.

Pint glass

The classic — versatile, comfortable to hold and keeps the beer cool. No frills, no distractions: just the beer.

Drink fresh — hop aroma fades fast. Best within 3 months of canning or bottling.
