We couldn't remember the last time we had a Smash (Single Malt and Single Hop) IPA, so we decided to revisit it in all its simple glory, while showcasing some incredible lots of Simcoe. Starting off with a base of Pale Ale Malt and hopped almost continually with Simcoe during the boil, this unfined beer pours a deep golden color with aromas of tangerine citrus. Dry hopped heavily with Simcoe T-90 pellets, Simcoe Cryo, and Simcoe Hyperboost, it's packed with flavors of lemonhead candy, bright citrus juice, and blueberry. These specific lots give heavy notes of berry and melon that shine through. An exciting beer with no frills, just a whole lotta Simcoe!

Pint can pours with a clear deep gold colored body that supports a white head of foam. The aroma offers up citrus, berries, grapes and a dash of honeydew. The taste delivers an even blend of citrus hops, some white wine grape notes and murmurs of vague tropical fruitiness. To midway a fun yet fairly vague berry like fruity hoppiness bubbles to the surface. This achieves a tasty level of hoppy character without introducing much sugary sweetness. It borders on being snappy in its mouthfeel. I'll get more of this.
