A 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 Magnum, Citra, Simcoe, Eureka and Mosaic T90 hops were used in the whirlpool and dry hopping, with additional Citra – ‘Cryo Hops™ Lupulin Powder’ added in the dry hop. Fermented with US ‘Double IPA’ yeast, the result is a massively fruit-filled DIPA with loads of Mango and Peach aroma/flavour and gravity-defying drinkability. Strap yourself in!

Can thanks to Mark. It pours clear golden - amber with a medium white head. The aroma is sweet, sticky, mango, ripe fruits, mango, passion fruit and tropical fruit punch. The taste is dry, bitter - sweet, sticky, oily, ripe stone fruits, apricot, juicy fruits, bit spicy, some mango and boozy warmth through the finish. Medium body and fine, foamy carbonation. Not bad.

Växjö kapitelhuset Burk. Färgen ja guld och nästan klar. Ovanligt i dessa hazy tider. Doftar tungt, blött gräs, lite övermogna frukter, lovande. I munnen då? Jo överraskande bärig i förhållande till vad doften antydde. Röda vinbär och lite hallon och svagt av vitt vin. Bra Dipa men inte i topp. Doften lovade mer än vad smaken gav. Vad hade behöfts för bättre betyg då? Jo mer fyllighet ovh mindre syrlighet. Bra öl som många verkar gilla. Eller är det hypen som påverkar?

Tap at Mother Kellys, 7th February 19. Pours a clear copper colour. Aroma is citrus and pine. Taste is spot on and bitter, pine, citrus, really easy drinking. Great one, the lower rates are not correct here.

Can. No Magnum hops and a different yeast, new beer then! According to Ratebeer rules which we all know are consistent, evenly applied and not at allnsubject to local admin opinion or ego! Light haze on this gold beer, tiny pale cream colour head. Smooth light sweet malts, light creamy sweetness. Resinous pine. Little piney sap. Modest nibbly hop spice. Ripe orange and grapefruit. Mild skunk Good stuff, loadsa hop character but it is fairly generic, do you know what hops are in this beer?

500ml can @ Station. Pours misty gold, good white head. A myriad fruit cocktail aroma, sweet. Taste is markedly sweet, juicy fruits, good exotics, excellent hop clarity. Really very good, and effortlessly drinkable.
