Pash 'N Fruit

Rascals Brewing Company
Ireland·Fruited IPA
Tap to rate

Pash 'N Fruit is an IPA brewed with passion fruit purée, added during fermentation. That tropical note dominates the aroma, and sweet and tart flavours alternate on the palate, a tangy edge over a delicate sweetness. The hops add cherry and apricot plus hints of melon and peach, and their bitterness keeps the sweetness in check. Wheat malt and naked oats give a fuller body. First brewed in 2024 and in the core range since 2025.

Passion fruit dominates the nose with ripe, tropical intensity—guava and stone fruit notes rise first. Supporting this are subtle hop aromatics of cherry, apricot, melon, and peach, layered over a soft, cereal-like malt base that anchors the fruity complexity.

◐ Taste

The palate opens with tart passion fruit sweetness, then alternates between tangy fruit and a measured hop bitterness that prevents cloying. Mid-palate reveals cherry and apricot from the hops, with hints of melon and peach, while wheat malt and naked oats deliver a fuller, slightly creamy body that supports the interplay.

◑ Finish

The finish is clean and moderately dry, with lingering passion fruit tartness and a gentle hop bite. Aftertaste remains refreshing, allowing the tropical notes to fade gradually without harshness.

Tulip glass

The curved shape concentrates hop aromas and supports a thick head. Essential for aromatic ales and IPAs where the nose is half the experience.
