Once again, we’ve teamed up with our great mates from over the Northern border, Holy Goat, to bring you a great big bloody DIPA!! This beer has a pretty mad hop bill from Citra Dynaboost in the copper, Strata CGX at pitch and then dry hopped with Galaxy T90, Nelson Sauvin T90 and Chinook Hyperboost.

Thick and juicy with notes of ripe peach, sticky melon and tropical pineapple, this beer is a celebration of hops in all their variety and forms.

Can. A mild to medium haze on this orange gold beer, small tidy pale cream colour head. Smooth palate, light and semi dry, good fine minerally carbonation. Light bodied pale malts, bordering thin but, a nice light creamy sweetness. Soft cooling pine into juicy tangy stone fruits, big ripe Nectarine, much lesser but juicy mandarin and tangerine citrus on the back end, along with a decent hop spice nip.
