Citra, Amarillo

Wow, is this trouble.
Start by doubling the usual Amarillo punchy orange with all the most citrussy aspects of Citra.
Layer that with all the rest of the herbal, tropical + resiny highlights that Citra can also bring.
Then add bits of donut peach + soft water + oaty smoothness + all the NEIPA ways that Whiplash know.
They can do dank bruisers, but I don’t think they get enough credit for flavour butterflies like this (on that note, this should really come out in summer.)

As well as being so drinkable for a DIPA, it’s also light enough to lose its aroma quick in the glass, so drink quick!
Like, I said trouble.
