We had Masa visit us from Japan a few weeks back to brew an in-person follow-up to our Digital Age collab Kaikoma from last year. Through Citra, Riwaka and Nelson Sauvin, we have flooded this DIPA with notes of grapefruit, passionfruit, lemongrass and lime, mowed lawns and ice cold white wine.

Can at home, 16th January 2026. Pours a thick hazy orange. Aroma is tropical, sweet. Taste is tropical and sweet, mangoes, a hint of bitterness, underwhelming on my expectations

Can. Hazy orange gold beer, small and short lived pale cream colour head. Airy palate, mildly dry, good fine minerally carbonation. Fairly light bodied pale malts, a nice light creamy sweetness. Crisp cooling pine hops, a savoury aspect underneath. The hops fruits are soft and juicy but, also a bit indistinguishable, well Riwaka exotics anyway. Crisp finish shows a mild hop spice and leaves a mild savoury linger. Solid but left me slightly unmoved.
