5 India Pale Ale
6.0% India Pale Ale
A collaboration is with legendary hop producers Yakima Chief. BBNo wanted to showcase their incredibly lively YCH 301 Frozen Fresh Hops Cryro Hops® using Citra, Mosaic and Simcoe to produce a fruity, juicy India pale ale with a fresh aroma from the start to finish. Refreshing, bitter and naturally hazy.
Hops: Citra, Mosaic, Simcoe

Not sure if this is the same one as it's now 6.2% but it's a cheeky little number. Lovely citrus flavour with a nice hoppy taste. Very enjoyable.

Happy, Haus, Juicy! Simcoe, Citra et Mosaic à l’honneur…! Très belle amertume et les 6 degrés d’alcool sont parfaits. Robe opaque et jaune doré.

Extremely pale and initially lively but the large head reduces to nothing but remnants after five mins. Fresh and particularly green on the nose, hoppy with light peach, apricot and satsuma fruits. Light and soft in the mouth with surprising medium body, it has some heft and a fast clean finish. It's not bad, after all it's all about the hops and this is a hoppy brew. Juicy it may be, but not particularly so, you won't be thinking your drinking orange or pineapple juice. Your continuously awear this is proper beer via the incessant hop flavour thanks to Citra Cyro, raw adulterated taste. Yes adulterated, as Cyro isn't OG whole hop but lupulin enhanced for good yield and an efficient way for getting max taste. If it were not for Mosaic and Simcoe I'm sure you'd taste nothing else than green hop. Whilst I'm not a huge fan of Cyro (invented by the collaborator Yakima Chief) it's undeniably tasty and prevents hardcore dry hopping. My reasoning is that said dry hopping is preferred as you get a more complex flavour profile and allows the individual hops to inject their own comparative flavours, where as Cyro is more like drinking green concentrate version of each hop, in this case Citra. It may be an unreasonable position to have as Cyro gets you 90%, if the other 10% is where the finesse and complexity is. And the progression is logical; people use whole hops, then refined hop pellets like T90 then T45 for 45/55 green/yellow (lupulin), so it follows Cyro or other liquid hop products. All that bollocks aside yes it's a nice beer! Refreshing and light, fresh and hoppy.
