Pineapple and tropical fruit punch up front, then a soft bitterness and mouth-watering lemon peel, closing in a long finish over a bready malt character. From Above is Track's gluten-free pale ale at 4.1%, brewed with malted barley, Cara Gold and oats, and dry hopped with Mosaic and Nelson Sauvin. Track calls it easy-going and quaffable.

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.
