The monthly DIPA series is our neutral, hop ready canvas to play around with all thing's DIPA. The goal for the series is not only bring you at least one DIPA per month, but also to allow us to push our base DIPA recipe in any number of directions with the goal of ultimately tweaking, refining and improving every DIPA in our lineup.
February DIPA (2021) sees us mess with our whirlpool process with the intent of driving some fun oils into the beer to have our yeasties convert into even more fun flavors for us to dry hop on top of. And dry hop on top of fun flavors we did, with a blend of Nelson Sauvin, Sultana and Vic Secret. We taste notes of tropical goose berry, danky pineapple and some dense layers of citrus on citrus.

A hazed yellow DIPA with a thin lacing off white head. In aroma, resinous floral hops, grapefruit pulp, light tropical fruits, very nice and smooth. In mouth, a nice sweet fruity biscuit malt with resinous floral hops, tropical fruit, grapefruit, very nice and rich. Can from brewery.

(473ml can c/o Luc, thanks!) Pours opaque dull orange-gold with a thick white head and lots of lace. Notes of heavy white grape and some sweet red berries, bright zippy citrus up front, some floral tropical fruit, some dank wet leaves, citrus pith and red fruit rinds, rather prominent bready malt but fairly light sweetness, quite dry dank finish with low bitterness, slightly chalky minerals and some citrus oils plus a little earthy stuff in the aftertaste. Medium-bodied, nice and creamy with soft carbonation. I liked this hop profile but I felt it was a little lacking in saturation compared to my hopes for it.
