Вроде нормальная дабл ипа, не нравится что есть нотка пердежа на аромате и на финише. Наверное так хмель играет, но не моё.
Orange, tropical, bitter and boozy. Proper DIPA for God Save the King 💯

Can from Strong Water. Milky golden body with a thin white head that holds well. Faint lacing. Aroma of pineapple and lime chutney. Flavour of lime, lemon sponge and peach. Medium body with a smoker mouthfeel. Soft fizz. A tangy DIPA that drinks well for the ABV.

Can. A mild to medium haze on this orange gold beer, good and persistent pale cream colour head. Airy palate, soft. Reasonable fine carbonation on the back end. Ephemeral pale malts, quite a forward creamy sweetness. Got a distinct fly by of Sugar Frosties here! Strata! Here we go with the hype hop. Cooling pine and a little hop spice. Mellow passion fruit, a touch of banana! Light finish. Yeah, it's not the finest Cloudwater brew nor the best representation of this hop but it is decent and drinkable, can't get any more excited than that.

Can at home picked up from 73 enid. A mostly clear deep orange coloured pour with a some haze at the bottom of the can, creamy white head. . Aroma is nice mixed citrus, orange, tangerines, mango, peach, tangy. Flavour is semi sweet, nutty malts with a hint of toffeee, jammy citrus, orange rind, sticky pine, sticky citrus, West coast vibes. Assertive citrus bitterness. Palate is medium sweet, and sticky, rounded, moderate carobnation. Really nice. Not typically strata chracter.
