Information
Juicy, fruity, soft and smooth; five Amarillo additions in the boil and twice dry hopped with Simcoe and Citra delivers intensely layered tropical and citrus fruit flavours. Moderate bitterness provides a balancing ‘snap’ while soft Scottish water and a healthy dose of oats keep everything well rounded.
Light amber/straw in colour with light haze and bright white head, the aroma is of candied orange peel with melon, peach and delicate floral and pine notes. On the palate pink grapefruit and lychee are up front with a sweet malt foundation and crisp, sharp bitterness to keep things fresh and fruity. It’s full bodied with soft carbonation and a long, dry finish; the lasting impression is of fresh, alluring, hoppy goodness.
So what makes this different to (almost) every other modern IPA? Balance. Roundedness. Drinkability, by the bucketload. More kettle hops, fewer dry hops. Perfectly soft water from Loch Katrine. CAN CONDITIONING. Aiming for total satisfaction, without going to extremes. And achieving that… though we say so ourselves :o)
