The team at Burnley have ramped up their can releases since March and Melbourne’s second lockdown only seems to have seen them push the pedal closer to the metal. As spring approaches (not that you'd know it from the weather in their hometown) the roster grows once more in the shape of the orange tin and orange-tinged Grapefruit IPA; a West Coast style of IPA with a citrus peel twist.
Fans of the brewery’s recently canned IPA, The Flex, will find much to love about this beer as it maintains the same lean body, gripping bitterness and resinous pine meets tropical mix. Largely, that dose of the tropics conjures thoughts of mango, papaya and lychee while the addition of grapefruit and orange peel contribute a zesty backing track.
