A revisit of our collaborative Double IPA brew with our friends from over t’hills Cloudwater Brew Co. Golden Promise, Wheat, Oat and Crystal Malt were used for a smooth, golden, malty body. A combination of Citra, Simcoe, Eureka and Mosaic T90 hops were used in the whirlpool and dry hopping, with additional Citra & Mosaic LupulN2 Pellets added in the dry hop. Fermented with London Fog yeast, the result is a fruit-filled DIPA with loads of Mango and Peach aroma/flavor, a little residual sweetness and a gravity-defying drinkability. Strap yourself in!

Keg tap at the Bermondsey taproom. Light gold with a very film of white head. Tamgerine and grapefruit peel in the aroma with a touch of biscuity malt. Sweet, sugary taste with peach nectar flavours and a chewy resinous finish. Soft carbonation. Spot on.

Keg at 73 Enid Street, 11/01/19. Almost clear golden amber with a decent light beige cap that dissipates edgeward. Nose is grassy, bitter orange, pine needle, mandarin, toasted malts. Taste comprises balanced tropical fruit medley, pine resin, mango, cantaloupe melon, Um Bongo. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close peppered with juicy hop bitterness. Really solid DIPA action ... beat the CW Threes side by side @3.9.
