Tasting Notes: DDH West Coast IPA w/ Nelson Sauvin, Nelson Sauvin Cryo, Motueka, Motueka Cryo, Simcoe 702 & Strata CGX
Description:We’re big fans of Green Cheek here at Track. After making friends with Evan at F&F&B 2019, we brewed a TIPA with them and Highland Park in 2020 called What Could Go Wrong?, our highest-ever rated hop-forward beer. With our attention firmly fixed on the West Coast at the moment, we’re now tackling a West Coast IPA but giving it the DDH treatment.
We’ve loved brewing this style over the past year – combining our favourite parts of the classic west coast style with modern dry-hopping techniques and doses – and we think this is our best one to date. A mix of dank strawberry on the nose, pine and grapefruit tickle the tongue, and this gives way to a finish of pithy, juicy citrus fruit that befits a collab with a brewery from Orange, California.
