[Citra | Simcoe | NZ Cascade]

Our latest hazy DIPA spotlights some of the best US hops we've gotten our hands on recently. We've loaded it with two distinct lots of Citra - ranging from bright citrus zest to ripe peach aromas during evaluation - alongside Simcoe and a touch of NZ Cascade to tie it all together.

We've subtly increased the bitterness to perfectly balance the juicy fruit character and honor the style's roots. Expect heaps of tropical fruit like red papaya and mango plus a big, fuzzy mouthful of peach.

Can. Opaque yellowish orange with a modest but dense white head. Intense mixed citrus, herbal and under-ripe tropical fruit aroma with some light bread. Smooth verging on sludgy. Sweet with more tropical fruit than citrus - mango, passionfruit, liquorice (!). Gets a little astringent rather than bitter towards the end, with resin, weeds and herbs.

From a 440ml can on 15/8/2025. Pours a cloudy medium golden with a medium head. Has a big fruity nose features passionfruit, peach and mango. The taste explodes with zesty orange, peach, mango, passionfruit, finishing with a tangy, light spicy bitterness. Has a pillowy mouthfeel with moderate to average carbonation. Punchy and supe cohesive. Wonderful stuff.
