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.

440ml can.
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.

Pours a hazy orange with thick, soft foam.

Smell is vegetable with notes of citrus, mango and grass.

Taste is tropical with notes of mango, grass citrus and lots of vegetable broth. Mild bitterness.

Mouthfeel is medium,soft and well carbonated.

Overall, a good IPA with too many vegetable notes for me.
