In the endless pursuit of hoppiness, weve taken some quite extreme measures and hops to create a fresh new take on the intentionally hazy Vermont-style IPA. Weve done without crystal malt and boil hops, relying instead on Australian-grown triticale a hybrid of wheat and rye and rolled oats, heavy whirlpool and dry hop additions – including one very generous and hilariously rule-breaking dry hop addition at the start of fermentation.
A cult line-up of Hallertau Blanc, Moutere, El Dorado, Citra and Amarillo hops deliver intense aromatics of candied lemon, lime zest, guava, white grape and passionfruit. The inimitable English top-cropping yeast lends peach and apricot esters while transforming the early-dry hop addition into what can only be described as breakfast juice.
With minimal bitterness and a soft palate courtesy of the protein-rich Triticale and Oats, this is best summed up in one word Juicy.
