Nelson Sauvin Fresh Hop Cold IPA 2023

Описание

This year we chose Cold IPA as the beer style to best showcase fresh Nelson Sauvin hops. For a unique twist on the cold IPA style we added champagne yeast during late stage fermentation to create a beer with an extra dry finish.We start the fermentation with a lager yeast, fermented at a slightly higher temperature than usual for a lager yeast. This minimises the presence of fruity esters more typical of IPAs and produces a crisp, clean IPA with the hops being centre stage and dominant through the palate. During late fermentation we added champagne yeast to finish the fermentation. Nelson Sauvin hops are known for having low cohumulone levels which create a beer that drinks with a smooth bitterness.
