Sour IPA dry-hopped with Huell Melon, aged in Rioja wine barrels.
The Joyous Event is upon us. Our friends from IMBC collaborated with us on the beer they want to drink at their festival, a smashable mixed fermentation IPA. The team from IMBC tasted their way through the OverWorks cellar creating a blend of old and young. Sour stock aged for one year in Rioja red wine barrels was rejuvenated with a blast of fresh, Brett IPA and dry-hopped with Huell Melon to accentuate the rich fruity fermentation character.

Keg at BD Castlegate. It pours cloudy orange with a small, bubbly off-white head. The aroma is bright, zingy, tart fruits, sour melon, orange peel, mango, peach, sherbet, vinous, funk, sour candy and a splash of vanilla. The taste is crisp, dry, tart, puckering, funky, sherbet, gooseberry, grape, vinous, oak, earth, peach, apricot, mango, light tannin and blood orange with a dry finish. Medium body and fine carbonation. Great flavour and balance. Moreish and chuggable. Really nice.

On tap at BrewDog Brum Nice wild IPA. Hop bit is little bit overwhelmed by sourness as one is used to with OverWorks already. But in overall it's very nice drinking
