Discover the Flavours of Gozo: Welcome Back, Prickly Pear Juicy IPA!

At Lord Chambray, we're always inspired by the vibrant flavours and stunning landscapes of our island home, Gozo. Our latest seasonal treat—the Prickly Pear Juicy IPA—is back, and it’s better than ever! This limited-edition beer blends tradition with the distinctive taste of Gozo's iconic prickly pear fruit. Think of it as a liquid vacation to our sunny island, canned for your enjoyment. It’s not just a drink—it’s a full-on Gozitan experience in every sip!

A Taste of Gozo in Every Sip

Locally known as bajtar tax-xewk, the prickly pear thrives under Gozo's golden sun, making it the perfect fruit to inspire our refreshing brew. Sweet and bold, prickly pear is a local favourite in Gozitan cuisine, and now, it’s been captured in our IPA. This brew is fresh, fruity, and full of the spirit of Gozo—one sip, and you’ll feel like you’re right here with us on the island.

Tradition Meets Innovation

Let’s be honest—brewing Prickly Pear Juicy IPA is no ordinary process. It’s a full-on labour of love. We begin with a carefully selected blend of hops that strike the perfect balance of hoppy bitterness and citrusy brightness. The magic happens when we add fresh prickly pear fruit, handpicked from local Gozitan farms. The result? A juicy IPA that’s packed with the perfect amount of sweetness and just a hint of tartness. It's a burst of flavour you’ll never forget.

What’s in the Glass?

When you pour this IPA, you’re in for a treat. Expect a stunning amber hue with a hint of pink—just like the prickly pear itself. The nose? A floral and fruity delight, with tropical fruit and citrus aromas dancing in the air. The first sip? Oh, it’s a journey! You’ll start with that classic IPA bitterness, followed by the sweet, juicy taste of prickly pear, finishing off with a crisp, refreshing zing. Ideal for summer evenings, BBQs, or pretty much any excuse to relax with friends.

Pairing Perfection

Wondering what to pair it with? This beer’s fruity notes are like a match made in heaven with spicy dishes. Picture this: a fiery curry or grilled meats with a chilli kick, paired with the sweet, refreshing prickly pear IPA to cool things down. It’s also a star alongside anything smoked? If you want to go full Gozitan, pair it with a traditional Ftira topped with tomatoes, olives, and local cheese. Trust us, it’s perfect.


If you’re into bold, juicy flavours, this IPA is for you! 🍻

ABV & IBU: At 7% ABV and 40 IBU, this IPA offers a smooth, approachable bitterness. It strikes a perfect balance between strength and drinkability, making it an ideal beer to enjoy as the sun sets over Gozo.

Aromas: Picture tropical fruits—lime, guava, peach—with a sweet twist of Gozitan prickly pear and a hint of marmalade. It’s a refreshing scent that instantly transports you to a laid-back island evening.

First Sip: The flavours unfold like a tropical escape, with each sip bursting with prickly pear and citrus. It’s refreshing, playful, and full of character.

Overall Taste Experience: This IPA is a rich dance of fruity flavours, delivering a smooth, vibrant taste that’s both refreshing and refined. Think of it as a well-crafted fruit punch that lingers on your taste buds, leaving you craving more.
