Setting Sun DIPA 8%

Whiplash picked a couple of hops they’ve been having the most fun working with all year and made an auld brewer’s cut of hoppy soup. A grand cru of ‘joose’ if you will. This is all about the hops – a touch of Vic Secret in the whirlpool at the last minute on this one before heading to the fermenter to rock away with hoppy dance partner Vermont Ale yeast for the week before getting a double dose of El Dorado and Citra & BRU-1. Intense pineapples, watermelons, mangoes and pine on the nose and not too different on the flavour, complemented by a soft fluffy light malt sweetness rubbing with intense and sweet hop oil finishing in light restrained bitterness and buckets of tropical fruit.
