Collaboration with Outer Range.

After a 2row and wheat base, we used a Citra Lupomax whirlpool and a Galaxy, Motueka, Riwaka, and Eclipse dry hop. Pouring hazy yellow, aromas of sweet fruit and assorted citrus greet you before a hoppy burst of orange marmalade, mango chunks, earthy dank pine, grass, and lime wedges.

Canned On: 2/10/24

Poured into a Trillium glass a pretty nice cloudy pale yellow color, pretty nice carbonation, with a pretty nice thick/creamy one-finger plus off-white head, which also leaves some pretty nice creamy sticky lacing behind. The nose is hoppy, malty, with a pretty nice citrus complex (oranges, tangerines, pineapple, grapefruit, mango, melon, lime, papaya), pretty nice diesel like. The taste is pretty nice, hoppy, malty, with a pretty nice citrus complex (oranges, tangerines, grapefruit, pineapple, mango, melon, lime, papaya), pretty nice diesel like. Medium body, ABV hidden very well, with a nice dry/bitter finish. Overall, this is a pretty tasty beer. MilkShake! Orange Julius! Addictive!

Poured a golden color with a 4F head in a Spiegelau IPA glass.

Complex aroma of tropical fruit, banana, citrus. The aroma changes with warming to more tropical fruit.
One of the best DIPA aromas.

Moderate MF. Typical of many DIPAS.

Complex taste follows the aroma. Tropical fruit, citrus and more.

I started at 40°. The flavors change with warming. One of the best DIPAS I have tasted from the brewers, Equilibrium and Outer Range.

Citra Lupomax with a 4-hop dry hopping. Man, I love Citra.
