We’ve twisted up our beloved Toques of Hazzard Double White IPA with blackberry and raspberry. The punchy hop aroma of white grape, kiwi, and lime character from Nelson Sauvin and Citra intertwines beautifully with blackberry and raspberry. This version is designed with slightly lower alcohol and lower bitterness than the original Toques of Hazzard to keep it approachable. Exclusively in this years Naughty and Nice pack.

473ml can. Pours a hazy orange gold with lots of floaties and a large, foamy, short lived, off-white head that laces. Sweet fruity aroma of bready wheat malt, raspberry, blackberry, white wine and floral hops. Sweet fruity flavour of bready wheat malt, lime, raspberry, mango and white wine in a tart, boozy finish. Medium body with an oily texture and average carbonation. Sweet and artificial. The original was much better.

On tap at Parallel 49, pours a clear golden orange with a small white head. Aroma has plenty of stone fruits, subdued resinous hops, and sweet bready malt. Flavour is hop-deficient, with gentle berries, light bitterness, and some sweet biscuity malt. Needs waaaay more hops—just lame as is.

On tap at Parallel 49. Pours clear gold with a white head. Tons of berry-flavoured wine gummies on the nose. Tastes like wine gummies too; generic mixed berries, artificial sweetness, and a manufactured dryness that is supposed to replicate wine. It's not bad, just gimmicky and one-dimensional.
