After having their Boathouse #7 - lets try their brand new #8. Golden-amber colour with a fluffy-soapy whitish head, lasting a little more than the previous, and a touch more lacing left. Citrus hop nose with a tad alcohol, bitterness, oats and grassiness. More juicy than #7 already. This one seems to continue in the path of the series, maybe why the Eclipse hops were written on their site, but El Dorade is showing on the label of the can. This one has the citrus, but not that zing, zesty, sting #7 had. Another juicy, refreshing DDH IPA that fits the bill.
