Cutting Tiles is an exploratory series of Double IPAs featuring a range of aromatic single hop varietals brewed with raw local wildflower honey. This new version is dosed with 100% Citra in all kettle, whirlpool and a massive dry hop addition. The honey keeps the body light and drinkable but provides a earthy backbone.

Floral and zesty up front backed up with a nuanced citrus character on the nose that continues straight through in the flavor profile. Pillowy soft mouthfeel, with a restrained bitterness on the finish.

Appearance is hazy murky orange, with a 1-finger white head. Aroma is hop resin, earthy malty hops, orange hints, pine, grapefruit. Dank hops. Taste is orange, grapefruit, pineapple, citrus fruit, candied fruit, hop resin, sweetness, not lots of honey, for the best probably. Sweet and juicy full finish.

Аромат весьма сбалансированый и яркий. Много фруктовых тропиков, почти мультифрук. Много ананасов с мякотью цитрусов. Есть также мед и ваниль. Цвет ярко желтый, пенка белая, пышная. Во вкусе снова идеальный баланс между фруктовыми составляющими и хмелевой горчинкой. Сначала фруктовая мякоть, тропики. При глотке скорее не горечь и хмелевая сухость, которая как будто вот вот раскроеться но уходит в сухость без травянистой горчинки, что радует. Баланс, это оно, как всегда у Американцев.

On the sweet side, lacking the expected bright tropical-citrus juiciness needed to balance the floral sweetness of the honey. Notes of mango, pineapple, grapefruit, and lemon drops lead to a vanilla tinge on the back end, but the residual sugars coat the finish. Not bad, just not as balanced as I would like.

19th February 2024; Shrewsbury Gathering, five blokes and loads of beer to share. US Pint can. Cloudy orange body, white topping. Citrussy and semi-sweet, I wonder how they get the Bees to only take Nectar from Wildflower's and not from someone's garden?

Hoppy and creamy, a bit bitter, some sweetness. Citrus, grapefruit, a bit grassy, finishes dry. Very nice.
