A hop-heavy, DDH DIPA brewed in collaboration with our friends at Barrel Culture. Sitting at a heady 8.5%, this beer showcases a wide array of some of our favorite Pacific North Western hop varieties, including Citra, Simcoe, and Cashmere. This collaborative effort tastes and smells like tangerine zest, resinous pine, and split melons.

Well done NEDIPA from Portland ME.
The 8.5% ABV are nicely hidden in this superb brew which is smooth to the palate and gentle to the nose. Very worth the money!

A: Pours a slightly hazy orange color with 2 fingers of head that fades down to a nice cap that leaves good lacing

S: Lots of citrus up front, especially orange and grapefruit. Some tropical fruit, melon, and pine in there as well

T: Follows the nose. Starts off with a wave of citrus, followed up by a mix of the pine, tropical fruit, and melon. Moderate bitterness. Finishes with lingering citrus rind and pine

M: Medium bodied with moderate carbonation. On the smoother side

O: A very nice DDH NE DIPA that is way too easy to drink. Very well balanced and shows a great range of hop characteristics. Definitely worth checking out
