A blend of traditional English malts combined with loads of wheat and oats give this double IPA a soft, clean malt profile. We hop this beer intensely with Citra and Mosaic, imparting huge notes of tropical fruit, citrus and pine.

Can to tulip. Thanks Jake.
Appearance: yellow to bright copper color with a two finger white foamy head dissipating nicely to leave some messy lace
Aroma: semi-sweet cirtrusy to grassy hops with a small whiff of pine, clean biscuity malts
Flavor: clean bittersweet hoppiness blending with the malts. Mild aftertaste of the citrusy hops with that smooth underscore of pine
Texture: about medium bodied, maybe a touch under, great sipper, great finish of the citrusy hops
Overall: very nicely done DIPA worthy of more pours

Aroma has notes of cantaloupe, peach, bready malt, pine, citrus. Taste has a moderate to high pithy bitterness, finishing lightly dry. Perfectly carbonated creamy mouthfeel. Well done.

From tap at BeerTemple, Amsterdam. Aroma is dank oniony hop, tropical fruits, citrus, oats, mango, passion fruit, garlic, light pine. Mild sweetish taste, bitterness is medium with a hint of hopburn. Medium body. Juicy and dank, nice, bit overboard on the onions.
