For our second collection of phase haze beers with the wonderful Track we are shifting towards experimental NZ varieties alongside the established US star that is Citra. In this IPA Citra takes the lead bringing strong notes of mango and grapefruit alongside more complex New Zealand hedgerow notes and hidden tropical gems. Classy and decadent.

Draught at Oluthuone Haka, Helsinki.
The beer poured hazy and deep yellow in color.
Flavorful, dank with juicy tropical fruits and also quite a lot of sweetness.

Flavour of melon and lemongrass. Medium body with a smooth mouthfeel. Light fizz. A very tasty IPA - heavily hopped yet easy drinking.

On tap at The Taps in Beaconsfield, Bucks. A hazy golden/orange coloured pour with a medium white head on top. Hoppy, citrus, orange, lime, tropical fruit action. A sharp, dank, juicy IPA from Verdant. Very nice.

Can. NZH109, Citra and NZH106 hops. Not sure why the description only mentions Citra specifically. A mild haze on this slightly yellowish gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Light palate, a mild dryness, good fine minerally carbonation. Light smooth pale malts, a light and mildly dry creamy sweetness. The new Kiwi hops bring bright and slightly tangy hop fruits, bright citrus and stone fruits and a touch of that near ubiquitous lime you get from Kiwi hops. Love the punch and brightness, specially the 109. Claims of Riwaka+ are misplaced for me. That hop remains exotic and enigmatic. 106 and 109 do not bring unknown flavours, they deliver bright and punchy known flavours and, they are going down well here.
