THIS BEER IS

Brewed in collaboration with Jeppe from Evil Twin Brewing (and named after his mum), this Double IPA is big on fruity flavours.

Single hopped with Mosaic for lots of tropical, passion fruit and citrus flavours. Loaded with well over 100kg of blueberries, the original was one super fruity hop bomb.

BREWER'S TIP

Brewers Tip Icon

Mash the blueberries before adding to the kettle. This will help with flavour extraction and turning your wort a nice shade of purple.
