A dry-hopped Wild IPA that is juicy, funky and piney.
Before bottling, we added hops to a blend of a two year red wine barrel-aged DIPA and a foudre ale. This began a process of biotransformation that brings deep hop flavours to life. The result is a beer with sweet flavours
of papaya and pineapple, underpinned by a slightly bitter and dry finish.

Bottle. CW Xmas box. Fully hazed orange gold. Thin CW swede. Looks good. Pretty weird this. Soapy mouthfeel on top of a lavender hop, vinous, slightly rubbery character. Itโs a proper mish mash. Doesnโt work.
