Here’s the taste of summer right here. Park Life has been flying off the shelves since it was first released, and whoever exports the passion fruit puree from Brazil for this beer must be enjoying a bumper season.
When you try Bomber‘s golden-apricot coloured ale, you’ll quickly realize why it’s so popular. It’s an unfussy, straightforward, lightly tart and supremely refreshing beer.
There’s no mistaking the passion fruit in the aroma, but the sweetness is dialed back above some light toasty malt.
Sweet and lightly tart passion fruit is the star flavourwise, but there are also hints of mango and lime. This fruit basket is astutely balanced by some sprightly carbonation and bittering hops, as some biscuity malt comes through before a clean, mineral finish.
Food pairing: Salads, simple fish, mild curries
