On tap at Seven Lakes Station, unassuming 10% ABV of demure dry-hopped Triple IPA endures below polite lemony grapefruit bittering and sweet orange tang as resinous pine tones and biting juniper sharpness spike fusel-induced tropical fruit finish. Limey white-wined passionfruit, guava and gooseberry souring contrasts honeyed peach, pineapple and plum sweetness beneath the surface.

Sunny grapefruit juicing and lactic barley-floured gluten guide richly textured setting of hazily glowing gold-marbled DDH NEIPA.
