Tropes from Drygate Brewing Review

21/7/2021

0 Comments

 
Drygate Brewery from Glasgow are very much LDIL beer festival regulars so it was no great surprise to find Tropes in amongst the other cheap beer offerings. The beer comes in a not particularly pretty, but typically Drygate green and white 330ml can and offers a pretty impressive 6.5% alcohol content, which for an IPA feels strong. While Tropes starts off quite lively the white head quickly dissipates leaving the slightly hazy, amber body exposed. I really didn't like the smell of mango and passion fruit that just seeps out of the can as soon as you crack it open. It really is quite repugnant.
Tropes from Drygate Brewing Beer Review
Tropes also feels quite thick for an IPA, the texture really resembles a heavy fresh fruit drink, which just isn't right for an amber ale. Meanwhile the taste very much matches the smell with loads of tropical fruits, mango, pineapple, passion fruit, and a bit of citrus all coming through, so if you like that kind of thing you'll probably enjoy this beer. I find it slightly concerning that this 6.5% beer tastes more like fruit juice than beer, but I'm not going to knock a beer for been strong. Tropes really isn't to my taste and the texture just feels far to thick for what it is. I'm going to give Tropes from Drygate Brewery 4 out of 10. Unless you're really into passion fruit and pineapple, or really want to get drunk on fruit juice probably give it a miss.
