Reaching for the Stars is a New England Style IPA with 7% ABV. The beer is characterized by a firm, late dry-hopping with the blend of El Dorado, Mosaic and Citra hops. These hops provide flavors of tropical fruit, citrus, pineapple and mango and aromas of citrus, pear, watermelon and stone fruit. We used a large amount of oats for the silky smooth mouthfeel that we like to see in our hazy IPAs. This time we fermented the beer with Lallemand's Verdant IPA yeast.

CD 18/11. Lovely lemony yellow hazyness, with a white head. Smells fruity, but still subtle, bit grassy. Soft and easy drinking. Taste is very nice, obviously not as heavy hitting as their DIPA's, but well balanced. Some citrus, bunch of gooseberries. Yay.

Dit is wederom een bovengemiddeld goede neipa, erg tropisch in het aroma alsmede de smaak, de tonen van sinaasappel, mango, ananas, citrus, en andere steenvruchten komen goed en vers door, vrij zacht en romig van textuur, erg lekker (4.3) 👍🏻
