Vic Secret takes the lead in this DDH IPA, providing a neat balance of bright pineapple and fresh herbs to complement the ripe tropical fruit and zesty citrus delivered by Idaho 7 and Citra.

Pours a hazy, bright orange coloration with a medium, fluffy, lasting head, leaving tufts of lace as it slowly recedes. Smells of light biscuity malt and tropical /citrus notes of pineapple, lychee and grapefruit. Taste is an excellent balance of light biscuity malt and fruity, juicy, slightly herbal and woody hops, with tropical and citrus notes of pineapple, lychee and pink grapefruit, as well as just a hint of cedar wood. Finishes with a light/medium bitterness and some pineapple, lychee, grapefruit and cedar wood lingering in the aftertaste. Soft, pillowy mouthfeel with a medium body and carbonation.

Even at 14 months old, the hops are still coming through incredibly vibrant here, really popping with fresh and juicy tropical and citrus notes, with lychee and pink grapefruit standing out particularly, as well some herbal, earthy, woody accents from the Vic Secret, which really put an interesting twist on the flavor profile that I can quite appreciate. Overall this is another quite unique and different NEIPA from Cloudwater featuring a great balance of fruity, juicy and earthy, woody notes, with a clear focus on the Vic Secret hops.

Pours a hazy and vibrant light orange with thick, fluffy head.

Smell is juicy and dank with notes of melon, citrus, lemongrass and pineapple with some earthy and herbal hints.

Taste is juicy, dank and a bit herbal. Notes of citrus, pineapple, grass, melon and hints of licorice and pithy grapefruit. Solid bitterness, great balance.

Mouthfeel is medium, soft and pillowy with good carbonation.

Overall, another great IPA by the best brewery in the world.
