Kveik yeast was used to produce this hazy un-filtered ale with a new variety of hops. Alora hops provide a tantalizing blend of peach, apricot sweet melon, and yuzu fruit with N.Y. Malt in the tradition of Genesee Cream Ale making this a truly unique blend of styles of a dry hopped IPA and a cream ale.

On tap at The Genesee Brew House in Rochester, NY.

This one pours a slightly hazy golden yellow color, with a small head, and lots of lacing.

This smells pretty peachy, with berry, pine, corn, and a little bit of graininess.

This is one of the fruitier iterations of Genny’s dry hopped cream ales – it’s super peachy and citrusy, with that sort of odd fruitiness that Kveik yeast tends to give off. There’s a slight grassy and floral bitterness, with a corn-like malty sweetness on the back end.

This is light bodied, creamy, and super drinkable, with a nice smooth finish.

I always have to order a new dry hopped cream ale if I see it on the menu at Genesee.
