Our fourth collaboration with Brooklyn-based behemoths Other Half is a doozy!
If you're inclined to read something like this and somehow didn't already know, Other Half have been making exceptional hazy beer in New York for over a decade now. It's always a privilege to work with people who share our vision of what beer can be; the thing itself, but also how it builds community and how it can drive the culture around it.
We've taken inspiration from their Daydream Series of Oat Cream IPAs and mashed it up with our much loved Gold Top range to create this supremely hoppy, oaty, creamy goliath of a DIPA. Our palette of hops from the States and New Zealand paint a picture in extra dimensions; Citra, Motueka, Riwaka, Rakau. All on a rich, decadent base enhanced by a measured touch of lactose.

Can from The Craft Beer Cabin, Bromley. Stupendous aromas of mango,pineapple, tangerine, lime, peach, grapefruit. Flavours of guava, mango, tangerine, lime, peach. Lots of bitterness from the hops. Juicy fruity loveliness.

Tap at Hopaholic, thx guys! Murky golden body, off-whtie head. Huge aroma, milkshakey, lactoseish. some fruitiness perhaps, maybe bit herbal/dank. Very, veeery sweet taste, vaguely tart to counter it, vanilla, citric, stone fruit, no bitterness. Sorry, but really not my type.
