Feel the wind in your hair as you cruise into this peach-infused Double Dry hopped IPA. Amarillo, Citra, and Cashmere hops pull you into a barrel of fruitiness combined with flavours of juicy peach that will instantly uplift your mood.

A gift from the family in August 2023. Drunk in October.

L: Bright orange with LOTS of yeast/trub/sediment swirling around the glass. The head is white and bubbly but quickly disappears. Lots of carbonation keeps the sediment suspended.

S: Definite peach notes, which is surprising given the can is nine months old. Some soft tropical fruit notes are evident, too.

T: The age of the can means most of the advertised tropical flavours have faded, leaving bitterness and a peach note, but I like my IPAs bitter, so no complaints here.

M: Mouthfeel is quite sharp, and there's a slight numbness in the mouth after the swallow, presumably from the DDH treatment the beer underwent, which the age of the beer might have exacerbated.

O: Rating this higher than the scores would suggest, as I suspect the age of the can means I'm not experiencing the brewer's intention as I drink this beer.

Cheers!
