We have a couple of riffs on our classic Soup IPA for this years Soup Day. This one sees the ABV boosted to 7% to support the extra dry hopping that we have attacked it with. Hopped in whirlpool and dry hopped in two stages with equal additions of the classic Citra and Mosaic combo and the guest hop here: Riwaka. This incredible hop from New Zealand is a real favourite here adding its unique blend of passion fruit and citrus along with that signature NZ twang that makes these hops so exciting. This beer will have you belching grapefruit, mango, passion fruit and weed. That's the goal, right?

Copenhagen 5/6 2024.. 44 cl can from Kihoskh, Søndre Boulevard, Kbh. S. Garage's usual Soup can design in black with a small green lightening bolt.
Pours opaque hazy, golden yellow with a mid-sized white head. Stable. Settles as uneven, lumpy layer of foam stretching to cover the surface of the beer. Clinging to the sides of the glass. Moderate lacing.
Aroma is medium intense with a sweet odor of ripe stone fruit mingling with tart, green scents of berries and citrus. Peach and mango. Tart gooseberry, green grapes and grapefruit.
Light carbonation. Slightly thick, oily, soft, lightly tingling texture.
Flavor is fairly intense with a rather strong sweetness followed by a medium strong tart bitterness. Aftertaste bitter with a sweetish undertone. Lingers for a while. Finish is semi-dry.
Fruity, well balanced and pleasant.
