OK Guy is an 8.4% DIPA that we designed to be fruited from the beginning. Generously hopped with 50% Mosaic and 50% Simcoe, then we added a ton of apricot and peach purée. As much fruit as Crucial Crucial Aunt Aunt was added to this beer.

Pours like high pulp orange juice. Looks like a snow globe when swirled. Seriously gross looking - need to draw the line somewhere. Minimal lacing unless you count fruit chunks stuck to glass. Nose is under ripe peach and white grape, pretty nice. Taste is a melange of fruit with fleshy mango dominating and a mild bitterness through the middle. Finishes with a touch of pine and grapefruit bitterness. Feel is slick and slightly soft. Bitterness and pine coats the mouth a bit. Medium carb, medium body. Good beer but the fruit has faded a bit already (~1 month) - not surprised that it's highly perishable, but the hops are stepping up a bit more now, interesting.

This was a delicious hazy DIPA from The Veil. Tons of peach, apricot, and mango in this. A touch of bitterness. The fruit stands out, but does not over power the hops. This still tastes and feels like a DIPA, not a radler.
