Experience the harmonious blend of flavours in this 6.8% IPA, meticulously brewed with Pilsner, Wheat, Oats, and Caramalt. Enhanced by the dynamic duo of Amarillo and Idaho 7 hops, this IPA offers a delightful fusion of taste and aroma.

Expect a burst of citrus and tropical fruit notes, perfectly balanced with a subtle malt sweetness. The creamy body, thanks to the oats, ensures a smooth and satisfying finish with every sip.

Oh, boy.
With these hops, this should be a citrus fest, and that’s there, but in a orange-with-a-soft-spot about-to-turn-blue kind of way, like when it starts letting off evil smells.
There’s also unexpected tropical notes - I’d not associate that with either hop - but that reeks of fusel alcohol, like a rotting pineapple.
It seems thin for anything NEIPA, tart for anything with caramalt, hot for the ABV and overall just hard to drink.
Not much else to say. Something deeply wrong in the fermentation and/or packaging. I don’t have to drainpour it, but I don’t want to finish it.

Whiplash, what’s happened to you?
