Bombay IPA
A West Coast-style IPA brewed with organic malt, deep golden and unfiltered under a light cream-coloured head. The aroma is clearly hop-driven, with complex spicing and distinct citrus notes over a light malt background, and the hops go in after fermentation. On the palate it is very full-bodied, semi-dry and rounded, with fruity hop character on a deep malt backbone. The bitterness is pronounced yet balanced, followed by a long finish of malt and hops.
