8th Birthday - Double India Pale Ale
Polly's Brew Co.

Our friendship with the legendary Cloudwater extends for as long as Polly’s has existed at this point. As a source of sage advice and guidance throughout our brewing journey, we’re proud to have been able to share experiences with the titans of Manchester in both working and personal capacities over our eight years in the game. When it came to filling the collaboration slot for a big, bold double IPA we could only look to the innovators of modern beer in the UK to join us for our eighth birthday, not only on the brewing side of things but the artwork to boot, with Cloudwater’s go-to designer, the Manchester based Textbook Studio handling the label design. Wanting to embrace the progressive nature of the industry we operate within, and showcase the skills our respective brew teams are capable of, we’ve turned the hype dial up to eleven on this DIPA. We’d already been enchanted by our first use of Eggers Special hops, so when the prospect of working with another New Zealand blend in Mega Motueka came about in our initial discussions we leapt at the opportunity. Utilising further dry hop charges of Lupomax Citra and Nectaron Cryo, this DIPA solely focuses on hype and hype alone. Our finished product is a DIPA that positively rinses every last drop of lively lemon, muddled lime with brown sugar, tropical fruits, passionfruit, soft peach flavours, and pineapple backed up with a light dankness.
