Bizarre Celebrations: Cloud 9 is a 9.0% Double IPA brewed to mark our 9th Anniversary. A blend of wheat and oats in the mash creates a smooth, silky base with soft sweetness, while the yeast lends a delicate fruitiness. Phantasm powder on the hot side, along with a dry hop of Peacharine, Nectaron, and The Bruce, brings layers of peach, apricot, passionfruit, and citrus zest, finishing crisp and clean.

7.9/10 β€” Appearance 8 Aroma 8 Flavor 8 Texture 7 Overall 8
Reviewed from notes.
Can to tulip.
Appearance: soft dark yellow/orange color with a two and a half fingers of white foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: peaches, tangerines, mangoes and passion fruit hop scents, subtle bubblegum, lighter note of sweet lemon then a super clean malt base
Flavor: blends all the prior noted aromas together to a fine bittersweet juicy balance; finishes juicy peachy/tangerine/mango-like
Texture: medium bodied, great sipper, very smooth with some dryness rolling along the tongue
Overall: very nicely done NEDIPA I would return to.

Pours murky gold into a tulip. White head with little retention recedes to hug rim. Pineapple and passion fruit aromas. Sharp with sweet pineapple, and kumquat upfront turning to hot caramel pineapple juice in the medium length finish.

A4 draught, 5/15/25.
Heavily hazy, bronze-maize-golden. Small, white head.
Heavy citrus with soft peach and bubble gum. Not punchy or resinous. Seems to have a very soft, lightly sweet, white bread-like maltiness. No alcohol noted.
Peach, canned peaches actually, but not gross. A slightly bitter fuzziness in the background with earth and light spice throughout. Juice lingering with white bread-like malt. Oddly easy drinking for its size. The canned peach is a little weird.
