Our first new release of 2018: a nuclear powered NE IPA double dry-hopped with good old Citra and Simcoe, plus a new breed known as Idaho-7. Allegedly, as bright and vivid as the first four 200-watt light bulbs illuminated in 1951 at EBR-I, first Experimental Breeder Reactor located in Idaho desert.

I Draught /I Good white head, utterly muddy light-yellow beer. New World hops, bit cheesy, celeri stem, lime. More of the same in the flavour, specific hops reign, but other grains underneath. Very slick, gristslick, medium carbonation. A bit too NEIPA forced.

18/V/19 - on tap @ SWAFFF (Brussels), BB: n/a - (2019-725) Thanks to the Belgian Ratebeer crew and the Antwerp beer geeks for sharing today's beers!
Cloudy yellow to light beige beer, big creamy irregular white head, pretty stable, bit adhesive, leaving some patches of lacing in the glass. Aroma: oh yes, that's my sweet spot! Lots of tropical fruits, dank hops, very nice, lovely smell. MF: ok carbon, medium body. Taste: lots of tropical fruits, citrus, good bitterness, grapefruit, dank hops, all the lupulin, very nice! Aftertaste: soft citrus notes, tropical fruits, super nice, really love this one!
