A thick and juicy Nectar IPA, co-fermented with nectar specialist wild yeast Metschnikowia Reukaufii* and Verdant yeast.

Dry hopped mid fermentation with copious amounts of Citra, Mosaic and Strata (>20g/L).

*"M. reukaufii is a nectar specialist that was isolated from flowers in the Berkeley Hills of California. Evolutionarily, these yeast likely evolved to produce a more odorous and attractive nectar for pollinators by enzymatically altering otherwise inodorous nectar compounds like glycosides." theyeastbay.com

Can from Westhill Service Station. It pours cloudy bright orange with a decent white head. The aroma is rich, juicy and ripe, great depth of ripe stone fruits, peach, mango, persimmon, nectarine, passionfruit, um bungo, orange chewits, fruitella, nip of pine, green, weedy, dank and spice. The taste is thick and dry upfront, touch of light citrus acidity which dissipates, then it's pithy, zesty, grapefruit, bitter orange peel, tangerine, kumquat, light bitterness, ripe and pulpy stone fruits, mango, apricot, passionfruit, some weed, green vibes, floury bread and a nip of alcohol. Finish is lingering green and dry vibes. Medium+ body and moderate, prickly carbonation. Surprised by the previous couple of ratings as this has a lot of character and depth of flavour. So much to it. Very enjoyable and rewarding.
