This one has been showing up at the dipa festival for a few years, but finally got a chance to get around to trying it almost 3 weeks ago. It won bronze this year.

Pours golden, with very good clarity. 1/3" white head scaled up. The aroma has a seemingly familiar Mosaic and Citra assertiveness, sweeter citrus and tropical fruit. Maybe some El Dorado.

The taste is nice and also relatively predictable, the continued interplay of citrus and tropical hits you up throughout the experience, "you up?" of course. Fits into a situationship and provides service. There is a heavier woody aspect of the malt body, intertwined twang. While it did fine with the alcohol being plenty drinkable, the heavier aspect and bitterness seemed not up to snuff (film).

Its a good beer, but like the previous review, it doesn't stand out much to me. Reliable for sure. And it seems to clean up well award wise, so perhaps this is a good example of how spoiled we can be.

On-draught @ DBC.

Unremarkable hop profile.

A largely forgettable beer in an incredibly oversaturated style.
