Can you believe we're five years old? It's been an exciting and eventful journey since we completed our first brew on February 14th 2015, so we decided to recognise this landmark by creating a series of three bold and impactful beers showcasing some of our favourite, hand-selected hops. This DIPA is our first beer to feature crop year 2019 hops from Yakima, dry hopped with a blend of Citra, Sabro and Centennial.

Aroma & Flavour:
Pineapple and tangerine, supported by soft coconut and a key lime pie character

Body:
Full, smooth and silky, with pillowy carbonation

Aftertaste:
Lingering pineapple and coconut, fresh mint

Can at home picked up from Unit 9. Pours murky amber gold with a decent white head that fades to thin lacing. Aroma is ripe pineapple, mango and orange, bit of dank hop in there. Taste is quite a big dank hop it, ripe juicy pineapple, coconut and lime offers sweetness before the boozy hop burn batters it into submission leaving a dry bitter finish. Smooth. Decent

440ml can. Opaque pale yellow with a white head. Aroma of pineapple, lime, coconut. Taste is really juicy and tropical, pineapple, lime, coconut, light rindy orange bitterness and a mild hop burn. Medium-full bodied, very smooth. Easy drinking Sabro hop soup of a DIPA. Excellent.

Can. Cloudwater online. Tee shirts and stickers absolutely involved. Super soupy. Yellow gold. Fine white head. Nose has sticky and dank, pissed on nettle leaf. Creamy Sabro shizzlement. Milky grain. Taste is sweet and fruity. Lime leaf twang of bitterness. Medium body. Fine carbonation. Drinks easy. Nice balance on the finish. Good, but CW have never hit the heights of the V series of DIPAs, for me.
