Mangrove Jack's - Pink Grapefruit IPA Beer Kit

Mangrove Jack’s Pink Grapefruit IPA Beer Kit – With Dry Hops

Mangrove Jack’s Pink Grapefruit IPA is a bright, citrusy brew inspired by BrewDog’s iconic Elvis Juice.

This one’s bursting with grapefruit aroma and layered with citrusy hop character thanks to the Simcoe and Cascade dry hop blend.

The sharp, tangy grapefruit cuts through the sweetness, making it super refreshing and dangerously drinkable.

Balanced bitterness and a clean finish round it out nicely. It’s crisp, vibrant, and perfect if you're into punchy, fruit-forward IPAs with a modern twist.

What’s It Taste Like?

Big grapefruit on the nose, backed by zesty citrus and pine from the hops.

The flavour is sharp and tangy with a light malt backbone and a clean, crisp finish.

It pours a vibrant golden colour and hits all the right notes for a citrus-forward IPA.

• 1kg Beer Kit Enhancer – A smooth, balanced blend of sugar and dry malt extract.

A Brewer’s Tip

If you want even more aroma, split the dry hop addition into two parts: one at Day 4, another at Day 7.

It’ll give you that fresh, top-layer grapefruit hit without overwhelming the palate.

Cold crash before bottling for a cleaner pour.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the grapefruit natural or artificial?

The kit is designed to mimic the flavour of real pink grapefruit using hops and natural flavourings — no need to add fruit.

Can I make this without malt extract?

You can use dextrose or beer enhancer, but for best results and body, we recommend using liquid malt extract.

Is it sweet?

No — it’s sharp, citrusy, and clean. The fruit notes are bright, not sugary.
