We brewed this beer as a reprise to our recent collaboration Polaris. This New England-style IPA uses the same hops as the original beer but aims for a lower overall bitterness and a softer body. Expect plenty of pine sap from the Simcoe before the tropical and gooseberry notes of Nelson Sauvin and Krush step into the fold.

Keg at Fierce Bar, Abz. It pours lightly hazy bright yellow - gold with a fluffy white head. The aroma is soft, sweet, sticky, perfumed, gooseberry crumble, white grape, plum,.melon, juicy, touch green and piney. The taste is crisp, dry, subdued bitterness (but thankfully more that a standard hazy), bitter - sweet, touch green, piney, plenty of melon, yellow plum, gooseberry, floury bread, floral and fragrant with a drying, green finale. Medium body and moderate carbonation. Didn't expect elusive to go hazy. This collab works very well though. Strikes and nice balance and doesn't lack in flavour.
