Collaborative DIPA brewed with our friends at The Veil. A full bodied juicy DIPA brewed with Citra, Galaxy and El Dorado, then graciously dry hopped with Citra, Galaxy and Enigma hops.

Opaque yellow with a fuzzy white collar.

Smell is dripping with minty cannabis but also smoothed by vanilla orange cream.

Taste is tangy orange, spicy pine and kiwi, as well as juicy tropical mango.

A chalky dry finish is preceded by a crisp fuzzy fizz through a medium-thin, smooth body.

DIPA - 8% abv

L - 2-finger offwhite head atop a murky orange body. Head recedes very quickly, leaving very little lacing.

S - super citrusy. Grapefruit, lemon/lime. A little pine. No booze in the nose.

T - tons of juicy citrus here as well, layered on top of a dankness that takes over in the middle. Bracingly bitter finish. Booze comes through more in the taste, but minimal sweetness.

F - medium-full body with minimal carb.

O - this is right in my wheelhouse. Not quite as good as Fire Emoji, but stylistically similar.

Cloudy, dingy orange juice body with a decent, mostly off white foam head when forced a bit. Very little lace clinging to the glass. Great aromas rising up as it's mostly grapefruit leaning towards the earthy side. No overripe veggie smell at all, nor is there any garlic or shallot, yet there is still something a little dank that offers a bit of spice as well that stings the back of the nostrils. Taste is a refreshing dry, resiny bitter straight away, taking on a real strong grapefruit character, followed slightly by orange peel. Got a little backbone on the otherwise dry finish. Where a lot of these beers come across as fluffy, this one is a touch heavier and more on par with the feel of a DIPA. After taste is bracingly bitter and dry.
