We're big fans of Green Cheek here at Track. After making friends with Evan at F&F&B 2019, we brewed a TIPA with them and Highland Park in 2020 called What Could Go Wrong?, our highest-ever rated hop-forward beer. With our attention firmly fixed on the West Coast at the moment, we're now tackling a West Coast IPA but giving it the DDH treatment (Nelson Sauvin, Nelson Sauvin Cryo, Motueka, Motueka Cryo, Simcoe 702 & Strata). We've loved brewing this style over the past year - combining our favourite parts of the classic West Coast style with modern dry-hopping techniques and doses - and we think this is our best one to date. A mix of dank strawberry on the nose, pine and grapefruit tickle the tongue, and this gives way to a finish of pithy, juicy citrus fruit that befits a collab with a brewery from Orange, California

Can at Cloudwater. Almost clear gold beer, decent bubbly pale cream colour head. Light palate, semi dry, good fine minerally carbonation. Light malts, a little thin on the mouthfeel, mild sweetness. Crisp hops, light cooling pine, light hop spice. What tastes like Centennial lemony citrus, trace of Motueka lime. Whisper of Nelson grapey tang on the light and semi dry hop spicy finish. Spicy linger. Decent if a tad dry.
