A dank and juicy IPA using Golden Promise, wheat and Cara Munich malts in the mash for a sweetly smooth and hazy body. Bittered lightly with Magnum in the kettle followed by Citra T90 in both the whirlpool and in dry-hopping. We also added T90 Simcoe, Ekuanot, and Mosaic in dry hopping. The aroma/flavour is fruit-filled, dank and resinous, with plenty of tropical mango, passion fruit and pine.

The colour is gold, the liquid is hazy. The three fingers head is white and compact; it sinks slowly to a thick lid leaving some lacing on the glass.
The smell is smooth and bitter-sweet with citric peels, resin, wheat flour, grapefruit juice and a touch of mint candy.
The taste is bitter with passing notes of gunpowder and beef stock. Slowly growing sweetness, grapefruit juice and citric peels. Light body. The aftertaste got dry exotic fruits, growing alcohol, biscuits and mint candy. The finish got some sweet dough and fruit candy.
The carbonation is medium to strong, the small bubbles are short-lived. The liquid is semi-smooth.
Too weak for the ABV and not enough body.
