Double dry hopped New England with hazy appearance. Citra and Mosaic take the lead on the hopping regime, providing a burst of fruit and bitterness. It will leave you with a hazy heart that wants more.

Very pale yellow, hazy as the name would suggest. Large thick head.
You can smell the citrus straight away.
Pleasant tasting. Heavier on the citrus lighter on the bitter.
Very smooth, goes down easily.
Overall a nice if unspectacular ale. Would happily drink it again.

L - Very pale lemon yellow, quite hazy, pours with 5mm fine white head holding well.
S - Citrus (between bitter orange > grapefruit) and the more perfumed aroma of lychee. Such a smell usually puts me on my guard against 'hipster hop-bombs'...
T - ... the citrus is clearly there you can't miss it, but it's in no way OTT.
F - Despite being 5% ABV I tend to find the punchy taste of such hops-forward beers can mask mouth-feel, and I think it happens here. The body feels relatively thin vs the taste.
O - A contemporary hops-forward 'DDH NEPA with Mosaic and Citra'. If your tastes are in that realm but you don't relish beer equivalents of 'Mega Sours' in a sour candy challenge then you might welcome this brew.
330ml can/£3.50 Canned: 6/Feb-19 BB: 6/Feb-20 Bought from a stall run by the brewery, found at the 2019 Paddington 'Floating Market' among various F+B/Crafts etc stalls.
