Hey duder, what's that up in the sky? Is that birds? Is it an aeroplane? No, wait! It's... Super Bomb! This explosive juice is chock full of a new experimental hop that doesn't even have a name yet: HBC 586! We paired that new new up with some Cashmere, Citra Incognito, Citra Cryo, and El Dorado to deliver a full on tropical detonation! We're getting big blasts of sweet mango, tangy guava, ripe tangerine, stone fruits, pineapples, and some requisite danky dank. Finishes with a bit of the ole hop bite.

Snuck over to North Park to grab a mixed 4-pack of new releases from the past few weeks. North Park’s website called it “Hey duder, what's that up in the sky? Is that birds? Is it an aeroplane? No, wait! It's... Super Bomb! This explosive juice is chock full of a new experimental hop that doesn't even have a name yet: HBC 586!

We're getting big blasts of sweet mango, tangy guava, ripe tangerine, stone fruits, pineapples, and some requisite danky dank. Finishes with a bit of the ole hop bite.” I’ve had a few beers with HBC 586 (had to double check), but nothing stood out. HBC 586’s characteristics are mango, guava, lychee, citrus, with slight sulfur and herbal notes.

Poured a light golden hazy color with two fingers of frothy off-white head. Could see a few bubbles coming up along the sides of the glass. World-class foamy lacing. World-class retention. (Sight - 4.50)

Smelled big orange citrus, tangerine, Tang, mango, guava, pineapple, nectarine, stone fruit, melon, lemon and herbal. For mentioned hops, HBC 586 led the way with Cashmere and El Dorado outworking Citra for me. About the same from the can. (Smell - 4.25)

Tasted a little better than the nose. Was really liking that HBC 586, which stood out. Also got orange citrus, tangerine, Tang, mango, guava, pineapple, citrus pulp, lemon, melon and herbal. Following HBC 586 for hops for me was a nice mix of El Dorado and Cashmere, and lesser Citra. (Taste - 4.25)

Medium body. Creamy texture. Average carbonation. Long, juicy finish. Really nice mouthfeel. (Feel - 5.00)

Such a nice hazy DIPA. Glad I grabbed a can. (Overall - 4.25)
