What the brewers say

“DDH Hazy DIPA with Citra, Riwaka, El Dorado.”

What our panel thought

“Fresh pineapple, orange peel, and bits of lemon on the nose. Crisp hop notes over the palate with snaps of orange and pineapple. Warming hop-juice finish. Enjoyable, vibrant, and inviting, but lacks depth.”

What our editors thought

“Pulpy mango and pomegranate in the nose. Suggests intense sweetness that doesn’t fully materialize in the sip. Crisp tropical bitter edge gives shape to the hefty body, with a lingering pithiness.”

REVIEWS FOR YOU >

BKS Artisan Ales Space Nelson

“Ripe red fruit and dank aroma with a cannabis-like quality. Flavors of peaches, mandarin orange, and a touch of dank. Sweetness and bitterness are nicely balanced. Doesn’t stay on the tongue too long and leaves you wanting more.”

Omission Bright Eyed IPA

“Light Earl Grey tea and wort aroma. The hop aroma is a bit muted, but the flavor delivers the hops and has a medium level of supporting bitterness. Clean and refreshing with medium-high carbonation and a semidry finish.”

Imprint Beer Company Philsner

“Hint of poppy seeds at the outset—herbal—blends with an impression of toasted bread or bagel that carries over into the flavor. The flavor is surprisingly neutral, at least on the malt front, with an unexpected richness accented by corn sweetness. There are residual sugars but little maltiness to speak of. A bit of grassy floral hop character. High carbonation with a crisp finish.”
