DIPA DDH with Citra and Mosaic. Citra and Mosaic are two of our favorite hops. Together they provide an intense aroma of green pineapple, melon, and grapefruit. 50% of our 4.4 lbs per barrel triple dry-hopping was with Citra and Mosaic Cryo. Yakima Chief creates Cryo by removing half of the green hop material. The name comes from chilling with liquid nitrogen to prevent the aromatic oils from volatilizing. The result is the equivalent of 6.6 lbs per barrel of dry hopping and one of our most aromatic DIPAs!

Pours a heavy golden color with a head that dissipates quickly. Aroma is tropical fruit, herbs and malt. Taste is pretty much the same with a sweetness that is a little odd. Good beer, different flavor than I'm used to. BOD 11-24-2024 Tavour. Rated 1-23-2025

Rich and chewy, with super juicy hops and and nice bitter balance. Mango and Papaya flavored hops. Really delicious Double IPA as usual from Sapwood.
