Trophy Brewing Company Cloud Surfer
What the brewers say
“Modern IPA dry-hopped with Mosaic and Citra.”
What our panel thought
“Simple aroma of white peach and grapefruit. A fruity, lightly earthy bitterness balances the crisp, sweet-leaning body. Has a rather snappier bite than the nose would have perhaps indicated. Whisps of ethanol. Lingering bitterness carries through the finish. Surprisingly brilliant clarity. West Coast hazy!”
What our editors thought
“Barley grain and fleshy stone fruit in the nose, almost pulpy. Chalky, with a drying bitterness offsetting the lighter fruit notes in the sip.”
