Collective Arts Hazy State Double Dry Hopped IPA.
4.1 % ABV. Collective Arts Brewing, Hamilton, ON, CAN.
And here we have my first beer from this Ontario brewery with the very colorful, artistic labels. I decided for my initial offering the least expensive of the bunch (once more, I try to avoid the $16-$20 4-pack. This one was a mere $13.49.), this hazy session IPA. Will I be back for more? Let's sample this one first, and we'll see.
Highly hazed, bright golden color, slim layer of delicate ivory foam.
In the nose: Citrus and tropical fruit notes abound. Exquisitely pleasant. Grapefruit, orange, guava.
In the mouth: Brisk, crisp and nicely hoppy. A bit on the thin side, body-wise, but that's partially the point. Moderate bitterness blesses the palate. Refreshing and quite tasty. Knock-backable to a crazy extreme.
This hugely flavourful, yet still extremely sessionable Double Dry-Hopped IPA made with 16 grams per litre of Amarillo, Citra, Mosaic and Centennial hops. Citrus and Tropical fruit notes dominate, but is also balanced with a smooth body that makes this one super easy drinking IPA.
