Cloudwater - DIPA V20

Fresh Craft Beer from our Bottle Shop and Taproom:

 Bio-transformation has become a regular feature in the flavour profile of modern beer, taking the known into new territory, but the results aren’t often singular and specific. At SIBA‘s Beer X in March this year Lallemand presented a new scientific paper that found grapefruit flavour compounds could be abundantly produced by pairing a classic US hop with specific lager and ale strains. v20 was heavily hopped at whirlpool and fermentation before co-fermenting with both a lager and ale yeast.

The result is a wonderfully bold grapefruit flavour that is entirely derived from this newly published process. We then added complimentary dry hops of Columbus, Centennial, Cascade & Loral to build additional flavour and complexity. 11 years of experimenting with hoppy beer, our quest for new discoveries continues!
