This double dry hopped IPA contains the same base ingredients, for both malt and hops, as Fort Point, but with an additional dry hop of Citra. The added hops richly enhance the juicy tropical fruit flavors of pineapple/mango, create elevated green, herbaceous aromatics, and increase body.

Tasting at SF, Vancouver, can
Cloudy pale blond color. Symphony of citrusy hops, with a spicy yeast background, and some astringency in the final.
Excellent.

Trillium is best known for its top class New England IPAs, the currently extremely popular beer (sub)style of which this brewery is basically the summit, so nice to try something else from them: an APA hopped with Galaxy, Columbus and Citra. Sample from a fresh can at Hopishop: B.U.M.B.A. in Antwerp. Loose, bubbly, snow white head, cloudy yellow blonde with peachy hue. Aroma of lime juice, ripe mango, sweet onions, fried pineapple slices, lychee, stale old grapefruit juice, sweet dessert wine, moist dough. Lively tropical fruitiness in the mouth, sweet and perfumey lychee and mango notes but perfectly balanced by sourish lime juice effects so in all not tasting truly sweet, fluffy mouthfeel with soft, 'refined' carbonation. Doughy 'soil' supports a very aromatic, beguiling hop fragrance, mango and lime again but some sweet onion, pink grapefruit and vague pine as well, followed by a slight hint at warming alcohol, while malty juiciness persists. They can call this an APA but this is basically yet another variation on the NEIPA theme - though admittedly again a top quality one.

Tall can at Brian's office. Canned on 2017-09-27. Pours a cloudy blonde with a white head. Aroma is yeasty and dank with some tropical fruit notes. Similar taste with some earthy notes. Good one.

Brewskival 2017. Smak och doft av humle, citrus, zest, mango, apelsin, persika, aprikos ohc ananas. Fruktig, koncentrerad, tjock och fyllig, torr, något sträv, elegant balans mellan fina aromer, lagom sötma, fin beska. Fantastisk!

Brewskival 2017. Tjockt guldisig med litet vitt skum. Krämig och tjock kropp som är riktigt smooth. Ananas, mango, apelsin, persika, aprikos. Sjukt fyllig utan att det tar överhanden, och fortfarande lättdrucket. Som ett NE-IPA-koncentrat av smaker. Väl sammansatt, ruskigt gott. Festivalens första öl och kanske det bästa.
