A Little Much
No, we did not just have a spasm writing that italicized style line. This beer is THAT…a Triple Dry-Hopped West Coast-style New Zealand India Pale Ale that will certainly have you saying “What The Fuck?” from start to finish. That’s because this whole thing is a little much, if you will. Triple dry-hopping an IPA is very California of us, and we rarely do it, save for a special occasion. But, we felt like adding dry-hops three times to the tank – first, some T-90s (Nectaron, Nelson Sauvin, & Riwaka). Then a couple days later, some Cryo pellets (Mosaic & Citra). Then a little later, some Nelson Hop Kief from Freestyle Farms. All into an already assertive IPA base. It’s clear, it’s bitter, it’s resinous, and it’s saturated with layers of flavors of passionfruit, papaya, tamarind & beachgrass. Too much? TOO MUCH?!
