This collab with our fellow provincial and colleague Floem Craft Beer from Appingedam is a NEDIPA and is double dry hopped with the fantastic Riwaka hop. Riwaka is a quintessential Kiwi hop known for its high oil content, which provides strong citrus notes when used in larger quantities. According to some, it is therefore the perfect hop for hoppy styles. We also used good old Citra and El Dorado. Together they provide a beautiful whole of citrus-like flavors and aromas. To guarantee the hazy base, the malt grist consists of low color Golden Promise, regular pilsner malt, carapils malt, various types of oats and wheat. To bring all the elements together, we chose WHC's Fruit Bowl yeast for the fermentation, a blend of different strains, perfect for the hazy style.

Can at De Koffer, Groningen. A bit sweetish with an aroma of tropical fruits, mango, soft oats, citrus. Soft weedy dankness, bit oniony. Light bitter, mild sweet, medium body. Soft, bit dank, fruity, okay.

I actually like this one, not as fruity as other releases, but fresh, clean, no exaggerated weird flavours as in other releases, just nice

CD 22/04. A proper yummy haze bombs from our provincial pride! Sweet, fruity, juicy and tropical, with the teensiest bitter finish. Lots of citrus present, together with some lighty piney herbal hoppyness and sweet tropical fruit. Always a safe buy.
