We’re channeling some Big Spring Energy!
We’re oats-maxxing this month, with oats just about every way they come. Rolled, malted and crystalized, all the oats, blended in with light lager for a smooth, protein rich base that’s guaranteed to handle any hop we throw at it.
And we’ve thrown a lot of hops at October! Nelson Sauvin and Mosaic Cryo in the whirlpool lock in deep, saturated, tropical fruit notes. Then an extra large dry hop of Peacharine, Rakau, Nelson Sauvin Cryo and Mosaic does the rest.
It’s a winner. Classic fruit forward aroma that hits as soon as the can cracks. Then it pours bright yellow gold with a subtle, almost subliminal flush of green. It looks like a great FRESH should. Dense, super tight, bright white foam and haze you can lose yourself in.
The aroma is an inviting soft, vanilla cream & strawberry bowl, slipping into lychee at the finish. Then that first sip is silky smooth, oat milk sweet, with big upfront peaches & cream, nectarine, passionfruit and just a faint hint of strawberry haze. A twist of bright lime followed by subtle chinotto citrus bitterness at the very end of the palate saves everything from getting just too juicy sweet, while sending a message straight to the brain that you really should have another mouthful.
Just how a hazy should.
