We’re hot on the heels of a new Double IPA. An oat-dominated malt bill gives this beer a super-soft mouthfeel, and it’s loaded with 25 pounds per barrel of fuzzy peaches and apricots. A hop combo of Lotus, El Dorado and Azacca complements the stone fruit with notes of orange rind and pear, and a fruit-forward yeast pulls in flavors reminiscent of gummy peach rings.
We taste: juicy peach, orange rind, brown sugar.

Had on-tap at the brewery... poured into a tulip

L: Hazed golden pour with big fluffy white head. Nice lacing.

S: Stone fruit and citrus.

T.F: Standard Troegs IPA malt profile... biscuity grains. Tropical fruit with peach/apricot, just as billed. Lighter citrus... grapefruit and tangerine mixed with melon and guava. Medium bodied... oily on the tongue. Smooth and creamy.

O: A solid peach/apricot DIPA. I enjoyed the 2019 'Nimble Giant' more as a side-by-side but still a fun beer. Glad I got to sample it.
