Timothy Taylor's

Hopical Storm

SESSION IPA

Hopical Storm is a modern, triple-hopped session IPA that brings a tropical twist to Timothy Taylor’s tradition. At 4%, this beer combines UK-grown hops in three stages (in the copper, hop back, and dry hop) to deliver a fragrant aroma of mango, passion fruit and lychee. 

On the palate, it offers juicy flavours of mandarin, melon and lime over a light, sandy-gold malt base – crisp and effortlessly drinkable. It pairs beautifully with roast pork, South East Asian cuisine, or delicate shellfish.
