Double dry hopped version of our hazy DIPA, World Champ. Hopped with ridiculous amounts of Citra, Vic Secret, & Mosaic hops to give off extremely pungent aromas of zesty orange creamsicle, lychee, & fresh pineapple.

Bought a Highland Park mixed 4-pack when I saw it available at Blind Lady Ale House. I love that BLAH is doing these lately as I’m on their website every day. Highland Park’s website called it “Double dry hopped version of our hazy DIPA, World Champ. Hopped with ridiculous amounts of Citra, Vic Secret, & Mosaic hops to give off extremely pungent aromas of zesty orange creamsicle, lychee, & fresh pineapple.”

Poured a light golden hazy color with two fingers of frothy white head. Some bubbles coming up the sides of the glass. World-class spiderweb foamy lacing. Excellent retention. (Sight - 4.50)

Smelled Citra, pineapple, grapefruit, Vic Secret, Mosaic, pine, herbal, viney berry, floral, orange blossom, orange creamsicle, pineapple and guava. Even better out of the can. (Smell - 4.00)

Tasted much better than the nose. Got Mosaic, Citra, floral, mixed berry, pine, floral, orange blossom, orange creamsicle, pineapple, guava, Vic Secret and hints of bubblegum. (Taste - 4.25)

Medium body. Creamy texture. Average carbonation. Long, juicy finish. (Feel - 4.75)

Slightly underrated, but gust an excellent hazy DIPA. (Overall - 4.25)
