When two IPA's collide! The first 30th Anniversary Collaboration Project release is a mash up of Baby-Faced Assassin and Elusive Brewing's Oregon Trail. The dominant Citra hop additions of B-FA have been joined by fellow US varieties Columbus, Chinook, Simcoe and Mosaic, before, during and after fermentation, while we used a California yeast used in place of our house strain, to create a fruit bowl of passionfruit, Mango and citrus fruit flavours.

On tap at the brewery. Pours a clear gold with a slight orange hue and a white head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has a citrus and pine combination with a bit of grass and hay backing. Flavor has lots of dank grass and a bit of citrus rind with a hint of marijuana and a light sweet grain backbone.

Can at home in Hackney - picked up from Elusive online. Pours clear yellow-gold with a creamy white topping. Light-medium sweet flavour, dry and bitter, curly piney, some sun-kissed pale mats, a little citrus rind. Medium bodied with fine to average carbonation. Bitter and balanced finish, resinous pine, light dankness, lean pale malts. Excellent.

Can picked up from The Hive Crowthorne, 31st March 23. Pours clear and golden. Aroma is pine and citrus. Taste is assertive bitter, pithy, some resinous pine. It’s a really great West Coaster

Can bought at Elusive. Aroma is resinous with a fruity streak and grains. Clear copper gold. Thin translucent white head soon recedes. Heavy bitter. Resin and stone fruit. A hint of marmalade. Light bodied. Slick. Soft-fizzy carbonation. Long very dry finish. Pretty astringent to boot. Enjoyable crisp West Coast IPA.
