Funky Fluid's reputation is built on heavily fruited sours, so Point Five Hazy IPA is a different kind of proposition. There is no fruit puree in here. The tropical character comes purely from the hops: a 16.5 g/L hopping rate with Galaxy, Azacca and Citra, double dry-hopped to maximise aroma and flavour. It pours pale straw with visible haze and a thick creamy head. The nose is tropical and resinous — mango, pineapple, citrus lemon, with a vanilla background note from the oat and wheat malt base. On the palate it is fuller-bodied than most alcohol-free IPAs manage, the oats and wheat flakes giving it weight that the zero-ABV brewing process can strip away. Mango and pineapple arrive first, then lychee and grapefruit pith. The bitterness is genuine: earthy and grassy, it builds through the back of the palate and dries the finish. Worth knowing: it is not vegan and not gluten-free. At 0.5% ABV it sits at the higher end of the alcohol-free scale. For fans of hop-forward drinking who find most of the Gelato range too sweet, this is the one.
