Collaboration with Fieldwork® Brewing Company.
What happens when the North and California combine? Working with our friends at Fieldwork we bring you a bold, tropical, double dry hopped IPA at a sessionable 5.0% ABV.
A collaboration with our friends from San Francisco, Fieldwork, and a beer inspired by our flagship session IPA, Eternal, this mid-strength but generously dry-hopped beer features Mosaic and Comet hops, which combine well for a floral, resinous base highlighted with notes of papaya, grapefruit and dark berry.

Pours a hazy, pale orange coloration with a medium, fluffy head. Smells of biscuity malt and citrus/tropical hops, with faint notes of tangerine and papaya, as well as some grassy accents. Taste is a great balance of biscuity malt and fruity, grassy hops, with citrus and lighter tropical notes of tangerine, grapefruit and papaya. Finishes with a light/medium bitterness and some tangerine, papaya and grassy accents lingering in the aftertaste. Smooth mouthfeel with a medium body and carbonation.
This makes for a really nice, quite zesty, low-strength New England IPA that is dominated by bright and zesty citrus notes, although there a hints of tropical fruit and a certain grassy quality to this as well. Overall, a very easy-drinking and refreshing brew with a bright, zesty citrus character and grassy accents.

Hazy light yellow with minimal head some clingy lacing. Taste is quite bitter with a sweet aftetaste. Sweetness left on the palate. Doesn't mop up too well for me and is a little too sweet. Not sure of the difference between this and a regular ipa. I thought the bitterness mild for my first DDH. Seems to be a strange mix between a NEIPA and an American Pale Ale.

Can. Hazy straw with a frothy head which dissipates to a scummy layer.
A mild tropical fruit aroma emanates from the surface. Distant pencil eraser present.
Muted flavours reflecting the smell. Bitter completion.
Medium body and carbonation with a soft feel.
Pretty standard fare.

L: Cloudy, dark yellow colour with a foaming, white head that leaves arcs of lacing.
S: Underripe mango.
T: Orange, grapefruit & pineapple. Abundance of fruit balanced by a dusty, dry finish.
F: Mouthfeel is light, almost thin, but the carbonation and bitterness save it.
O: Juicy, double dry-hopped, American-style pale ale. Bright flavours marred somewhat by a light body.
