Description
Discover Tropic Tonic, the winning recipe of our 2025 brewing contest: Julien Foncier, aka Hoppy Antidot!
Delicately sour, delightfully fruity, its light cereal base gives way to a true explosion of passion fruit.
Yuzu adds a subtle twist to the floral and citrus aromas, with notes of bergamot and kumquat.
Finally, vanilla in the background brings structure, adding softness and roundness to this beer rated 86/100 by our jury during the grand finale.
