12oz draught at Novare Res.

Milky gold body with nice lacing and decent retention. Juicy and tropical in the nose with plenty of peach, pineapple, and melons. Medium bodied with a creamy mouthfeel. A big punch of hops on the palate with zero malt and a firm bitterness. Pineapple, peach, grapefruit, and plenty of resinous tack. Finishes long and juicy.

Had side-by-side regular The Other One on tap at the brewery. Almost exactly the same, this one was maybe a little more zippy on the pine and citrus pith, but not by much

Canned on 8/20/19

Pours a totally opaque light bright gold with a slight finger of white foam; recedes almost instantly to a spotty, thin collar and persistent patchwork of lacing holding to the glass.

Aroma is bursting with ripened tropical fruits from the start, accentuating a soft but potent underlying herbaceousness; mango, peach, grapefruit, guava, and plenty of potent herbal influence; creamy-sweet depth peaks on the mid-palate into the finish.

Taste opens with raw herbaceousness doused in tropical fruit, with a residual sweetness building nicely alongside bittering hops; red grapefruit, dank mango, peach, and a touch of pine lead into the swallow; minor alcohol presence fades quickly and leaves little lasting effects.

Mouthfeel provides a medium body with subdued carbonation in sync with a prickly consistency across the palate, and supplemented with a quieter silky character; subtle bitterness sneaks through the finish for an approachable roundedness.

The DDH quality is apparent, perhaps to excess, as it brings forth an amalgam of flavor and aroma without restraint; ultimately this results in a rush forth of everything this beer could be, while lacking a focused consistency to actually take it to its peak. A great, easy-drinking NEDIPA regardless.

Canned 05/08/19. Good god this is a resinous, almost chunky hop bomb. Body and feel are viscous and nearly chalky. Smooth and creamy but the DDH-ing seems to take it too far. Would love to try the original to compare and I can imagine I’d like the base beer much more. A tasty and special beer that hits all the marks for the style and intent, but these DDH NEDIPAs are going a bit too far and losing their purpose.
