The incredible Fidens Brewing from New York make their Mash Festival debut this year and we couldn't miss out on the opportunity to brew something together. This is a big DIPA at 9% abv and teeming with a blend of US and NZ hops. Citra, Citra Cryo, Motueka and Rakau are the culprits here and they together they produce a crimenally aromatic and flavourful combo. We get lots of peach ring jellys, ruby grapefruit, lime zest and pine from this.

Rated at Pien Shop. Sweetish, sweaty hoppy and tropical fruity with some herbal notes, pine, citrus, lime and grapefruit, hints of warming alcohol and ripeish mango notes. A bit unbalanced.

Keg @ Pien Shop, Helsinki. Poured murky orange in color, oxidation looks to it. Unfortunately not in best condition here, oily mouthfeel, buttery like with notes of tropical fruits, chalk. Hides abv.

Can at Garage Universitat. Pours a very hazy yellow, tiny head. Aroma is rather dank, lots of pine, juicy and fruity, herbal hops. Medium to full body. Flavour is malty, rich, and quite sweet. Flavour is juicy and floral, lots of New Zealand hops. Grapefruit and grape, lime, some mango. Lovely. Super drinkable DIPA.
