An over-the-top sensory gust of fun. Nelson Sauvin and Eclipse. Sounds too good to be true! Both dry-hopped in equal measures, totalling 26g/L. Southern Hemisphere hoppy madness.

Hazy gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Palate is light and mildly dry, a good fine minerally crisp bite. Light pale malts bring a fairly sweet but thin creamy sweetness. Crisp piney hop intro. The Eclipse peachy tropical fruits are evident from the get go. Nelson I am struggling to find but for me, its a shadow of its former glory these days. Still waiting for the Mosaic like comeback for this once great hop. Finishes light. A decent Eclipse dipa then but nothing remarkable.

Keg at The Shakespeare, Sheffield, Yorkshire. A hazy golden/yellow coloured pour with a medium white head on top. Hoppy, mango, peach, tropical fruit taste and aroma. Lovely smooth rich DIPA from Baron Brewing. I need to seek this one out again.

{December 2022} Cloudy / murky gold with a bubbly white head and stewed fruit on the nose. There's a citrusy kick up front, it has a sprity mouthfeel and is fruity and bitter into the finish

Nice stuff. Fruity and hazy. But something interesting. Nice bitterness. Very full on fruitiness. Haze is less in your face later. Quite enjoyed it.
