At First Sight is a new double IPA and a pretty killer collab with Moksa Brewing Company - At First Sight was brewed with three different forms of Citra - Citra Incognito, Cryo Citra, and our hand-selected Citra Pellets, with a little Idaho 7 for good measure. Then we fermented it using Berkely London Tropics, a fun, new super thiolized yeast to really blast out that citrus flavor and aroma.

This is a very tasty Double IPA; however more sweeter than I expected, my expectations were more of an hoppy IPA. Nevertheless, it was decent.

From a 16 oz can pours a hazy golden wheat color with a nice fresh white head . Smell is juicy hazy and tropical . Delicious tropical notes of pineapple,melon and citrus ,a nearly all citra NEIPA this one is also soft with just a hint of bitterness .

Drekker At First Sight DNEIPA, 8.2% ABV. Pours hazy orange with a 2+ finger white head that left some lacing. Aroma is a real nice citrus, and spelt. Taste follows, slightly sweet, faintly bitter, no pine. Nice juicy mouthfeel with decent carbonation. Overall outstanding. Love me some spelt.

Canned 4/11/23 (1 month ago)
Appearance: Pours a nearly completely hazy (5-10% clarity) light and pale golden color with a massive white head that lingers. (4.00)
Aroma: Strong aromas of lemon and lime citrus, guava, passionfruit with some zesty pineapple. Citrus rind underneath. (4.25)
Flavor: Strong flavors of lemon lime citrus, guava, passionfruit, some hints of zesty pineapple and sweetness. Citrus and juice lingers. Some yeast on the end and finish is surprisingly dry. (4.25)
Feel: Medium body, strong carbonation. Juicy butt only mildly sweet and relatively dry and clean. (4.25)
Compared to Drekker Evil Natured Robots 5/2023: Pours brighter, larger head. Stronger aromas. More lime citrus, guava, pineapple zest and citrus. Less tropical orange and cantaloupe melon. Dryer and cleaner
Overall: A great collab with Moksa Brewing. This is an excellent showcase of Citra all-around. It has lemon/lime, guava, passionfruit citrus flavors. Tons of complex and dynamic flavors. Juicy, mildly sweet, but just the right balance. (Rating: 4.24)
