DDH Foggy IPA with Citra, Centennial, Simcoe & Chinook
One part fashion statement, two parts comfort. Three parts embarrassing the kids. We named this beer after our favorite Santa Cruz tourist phenomenon, in hopes that our beer might someday be just as popular. An unfiltered IPA made with oats, Citra, Centennial, Simcoe, and Chinook, using less traditional hopping techniques. More juicy and aromatic with less bitterness up front.
AROMA: Orange juice, mimosa, lime zest
FLAVOR: Pineapple, cantaloupe
MOUTHFEEL: Creamy, medium

Poured from a 16 oz can dated October 13, 2023. Aroma is moderately hop forward with grapefruit, orange and dank, resin pine notes. Light cracker malt notes and light alcohol notes. Pours a hazy, golden-orange with a medium large, thick, pillowy, white head that recedes slowly to a small film that lingers. Moderate lacing and small legs. Flavor is somewhat sweet with light cracker malt notes. Fairly high bitterness and light alcohol notes. Fairly strong hop notes with tropical citrus, berries, grapefruit and lighter resinous, pine notes. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, a solid IPA. The hop aroma is a bit muted, but the flavor is really nice. Good malt notes to carry the bitterness and alcohol.

Dingy pale orange-brown body, thick cream head. Aroma pear, grape, and lime. Body soft but balanced by an acidic limy bite, with notes of white grape juice and grapeskin, lychee, orange marmelade, and a soft gumminess. Mild earthiness and an appropriate bite. Pretty good but nothing stands out.

Can from Livonia Liquor. Pours a hazy straw gold with a finger of white, fluffy foam that lingers. Big pineapple aromas with with some dank and melon notes. All cantaloupe on the palate with lots of natsumikan and kumquat flavors. Drying finish, nice carbonation. Quite crushable.
