Collaboration with Verdant Brewing Co
Our good friends from Cornwall stopped in for a brew before we all flew south for Civil Society. We decided to do a North American remake of our collab in the UK, There Was No Why, but with a twist. There Was No How contained Citra, Simcoe, Mosaic, Idaho 7 and Sabro while our version also contains Citra, Mosaic and Sabro but we switched up the Simcoe and Idaho 7 for our hand selected NZ Motueka and Nelson Sauvin.

This one pours a very hazy golden yellow, with a small head, and not much lacing.
This smells like spicy hops, melon, grapefruit, and floral hops.
This feels a bit unique compared to the usual Other Half hop game. It's got a spicy and zesty bitterness, a bit floral, with grapefruit peel, mango, and melon. Don't get me wrong, it's still the expected juice bomb, but it's got a nice zesty and good "green-ness" to it.
This is crisp and very clean, with a good drinkability to it. There's no hint of booziness.
This is good stuff - it doesn't quite blur in with the rest of OH's IPAs.
