New Construction Options is a big, fruity and smooth DIPA with low to moderate bitterness and a soft full mouthfeel. It is a New England style DIPA built on an all malt backbone supported with masses of Citra, Simcoe and Mosaic hops. When all this is fermented with 2 yeast strains it produces a very hazy and very drinkable beer.

Can. Beer Stop, Dronfield. Light amber. Soft haze. Dense and messy, white head. Nose has sickly, sticky sweet, piny hop. Jam and marmalade. Taste is similarly sweet and jammy. Some piny bitterness. Sticky mouthfeel. Low carbonation. Dank and chewy bitterness to finish. Absolutely nothing like a NE IPA, due, I suspect, to another case of a shitty canning process. Last beer from this brewer that I waste money on.

Can shared in London - cheers to Dan. Pours unclear, deep orange with a creamy white head. Ripe and juicy citrus fruits, pale bread, melon. Meidum sweet flavour with some white grape, melon, soft rindy bitterness. Meidum bodied with fine to average carbonation. Balanced finish, more white grape, tangerine, pale bread, mild rindy bitterness. Solid.

Bodney Bier Huis bottleshare. Thanks to Dan the man for the can! Light haze on this amber - gold beer, small cream colour head. Palate is smooth and semi dry, decent fine carbonation. Soft sweetish malts, soft creamy sweetness. Good pine, slightly ripe. Resinous ripe citrus. Little citrus peel. Smooth finish leaves mild spice.
