Another soft, pillowy hazy DIPA from Adroit! This edition continues the emphasis on tropical, fruit forward aromatics with finishing notes of pine while keeping bitterness minimal.

Panda at home, thanks to Kenneth, 18/04/2025.
Almost clear golden orange topped with a white cap that thins to the edge.
Nose is bitter orange, grass, grapefruit, pine needle, straw.
Taste comprises orange pith, grapefruit, pine nip, melon, mandarin, light floral nip.
Medium bodied, fine carbonation, light drying close spiked with grassy come lightly dankened hop bitterness.
Decent enough well balanced DIPA.
No esters for me ... Kenneth should have stuck this in a panda and aged for a month!

3rd April 2025
Can. Almost clear gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Light palate, semi dry, good fine minerally carbonation. Smooth light pale malts, a light but persistent sweetness. Crisp cooling pine and a little hop spice. Ripe citrus with a slightly brighter trailing edge. Loads of esters, enough to suit a dubbel. Light crisp finish. Disappointing, way to estery for me. Don't mind esters in a Belgo brew, very much mind them in a modern dipa.
