y por dejar un poco más de azucar en la cerveza con esteres a albaricoque más elevados. La idea de esta IPA era elaborar una birra que sea juicy y herbal en partes iguales, sobre un cuerpo suave y turbio. En el whirpool usamos variedades clásicas como Centennial, Chinook y simcoe para un fondo cítrico y pinaceo. Luego usamos un dry-hop un 20% más pesado que lo habitual con mucho citra y HBC-431 para elevar esas notas a cítrico/pino y agregarle un toque tropical. Si esto fuera poco, elegimos una cantidad guapa de un lúpulo que nos encanta a pesar de estar infravalorado, Columbus, que le dio toques herbales que no siempre se consiguen en las NEIPAS, pero cuando está ahí no hace más que elevar la experiencia del lúpulo.

For Spiral Loops we have ventured away from our house IPA strain and decided to have a play with another popular hazy IPA strain to mix things up a little. This strain is known to be a slightly lower attenuator than our house strain and leave a little more residual sugar in the beer but with elevated levels of more apricot esters. The idea for this IPA was to brew a beer that was equal parts juicy and dank over a smooth, hazy platform. Hot side hopped with classic varieties Centennial, Chinook and Simcoe to give a piney, citrus background. Then with a 20% higher dry hopping rate than we typically use in our IPA’s we hit this with lots of Citra and HBC 431 for big peach, citrus and tropical fruit notes but also a heavy handed addition of one of our favourite but underrated hops, Columbus. This gives pungent dank, herbal and pine notes that you don’t always get in hazy IPA but when it’s there it blends so well with the fruitier varieties and elevates the overall hop experience. Less
