A DIPA co-fermented with three yeast strains (CW house, Verdant house and JW Lees) and dry-hopped with Citra, Mosaic and Nelson Sauvin.
It's the first time we've riffed on a recipe from our celebrated 'v series' in four years. But the launch of our new collaborative project, The Mashup, felt like the perfect opportunity to bring back the highest-rated edition from that set.
Dry hopped with Citra, Mosaic and Nelson Sauvin, it drips with soft peach and stone fruit, followed by a burst of fresh tangerine and grapefruit. The resinous, umami qualities of Allen weave throughout, balanced by a candied fruit sweetness that lingers into the finish.

440ml can. Hazy golden, white head. Aroma of dank and juicy fruits. Taste is dank and weedy with juicy tropical fruits, pineapple, grapefruit, mango, with more dankness creating a weedy herbal finish. Medium-full bodied. Great mashup of both these beers.
