Solar Flare pours a hazy orange colour with a small, loose cream coloured head. The head disappears quite quickly, leaving the beer resembling a glass of fruit juice. It smells like fruit juice too - it's very fruity with fresh and juicy notes of tropical mango and citrus fruits.
It doesn't taste as fruity as I expected from the smell and it's a lovely smooth, sweet and creamy blend of fruit, hops and malt. There's no bitterness at all from the citrus fruit and the mango adds a lovely fragrant fruitiness. It's very fizzy and has a thin body but it's very refreshing and easy to drink.
It's a very interesting flavour combination and I loved the sweet tropical fruits that smooth out the citrus bitterness you expect from an IPA. It seems stronger than its 4.2% ABV and Ale Be Seeing You again.
