Looking for a thrill? Before skydiving or hitting the surf try a Dino Break instead. Ride the wave of Simcoe, Amarillo and Centennial hops which give this DIPA notes of citrus, pine and bright orange.

0.44l can. Slightly hazy golden body with a white head. Aroma of honey, hop resin, apricot jam, sugar syrup and orange zest. Taste of biscuits, honey, pine, orange zest, apricots and some berries. Nice bitterness in the finish, the piny notes last long after the sip. Great DIPA.
