We cried wolf. Twice. And then we used American hops to make this wonderfully bitter, yet fruity DIPA. That’ll teach us.

(Bottle) Hazy amber colour with frothy, off-white head. Fruity, hoppy nose with notes of grapefruit, peaches, apricots, gooseberries, lychee, resin, herbs and flowers (tagetes/marigold, actually). Fruity, hoppy taste with grapefruit, ripe gooseberries, apricots, peaches, pine needles, soft malt and a generous citric, piney bitterness in the finish. Medium body, with a certain sweetness. Tasty, with lots of ripe fruit and a generous hop presence. Very nice.

Ne az aztán az íz bomba, világosabb sima társánál, és nem is annyira keserny, inkább gyümölcsös, alkoholfoka egyáltalán nem érződik. Vigyázni kell vele!
