Brewing this beer is not only science it’s a shart.
For the most part a double strength Belgian IPA aged with toasted American oak. This ale has a base of pale ale, aromatic, and caramel malts, upon which is set an American hop triumvirate of Columbus, Centennial, and Cascade. The addition of Belgian Abbey ale yeast provides a spicy, earthy, breadlike character that is truly unique. Lemon and grapefruit zest enhance the citrusy and piney American hop character, and the oak dries the beer out and adds aromatic qualities. 21°

On tap at CBC, pour a hazy orangey amber with a small beige head. Aroma of pungent tropical fruits, resinous hops and a big caramel malt backbone. Flavour is very sweet for a DIPA, with loads of caramel malts which outdo the resinous hops by too much. Very round, but too malty and syrupy for the style. Decent, but off the mark.

Pours dark orange with a smooth white head. Aroma of sweet fruity hops, caramely malts, toffee and syrup. Taste is sweetish and fruity with some grassy hops, lemon, citrus and caramel. Finish is hoppy and grassy. Okay, quite malty and citrusy IPA.
