Mark Newton is back with the next chapter of his journey down the California coast, and he’s in great company for this, the second of our Hop City collabs. This may well be the biggest, dankest IPA we’ve made ever, certainly in the series!
Our good friends at Crosby Hops have kindly let us be one of the first to brew with one of their new developmental varieties – CH3. Expect a waft of dank cannabis, overlayed and softened by white grapefruit and peach rings. Paired CH3 with two more Crosby varieties; Columbus and their excellent estate-grown Comet, an incredibly underrated hop that we’ve been using for years in Eternal. Aside from a pronounced peppery dankness, expect notes of cantaloupe melon, lemon zest and bubblegum. All of this is over a clean pilsner malt base for a softly resinous body with light bready notes which lets the hops shine before a long, pithy finish. FFO (that’s ‘For Fans Of’) Pliny the Elder and Heady Topper
We’ve also timed up with an expert exponent of the style, Gross Brewery, a small brewery located in the Basque Country. Blending hop-forward ales with German and Czech style their beer is a blend modern craft and well brewed tradition. Initially founded in 2013 as a contract brewery they opened their own brewery in 2017 and have been thriving ever since.

440ml can. Clear golden with a white head. Aroma of pine, resin, herbal and floral, zesty citrus. Taste is very resinous, piney, orange, malts, strong dank herbal and floral notes, good bitterness that lingers. Medium bodied, slick oily mouthfeel.

Can from House Of Trembling Madness. Hazy golden body with a thick off-white head. Steady carbonation. Faint lacing. Aroma of pineapple and tangerines. Flavour of pineapple and sponge cake. Medium body with a slick texture. Soft fizz. A juicy and pineapple-y DIPA.

Provning på Wilhelmshill med Patte. Doftar lite klassisk ipa. Lite honung o tallbarr. Här ligger lite krusbär o citrus. Välbalanserad o mjuk efterbeska. Det här gillar jag!
