One of the best things about Hop City - aside from the obvious - is the gathering of brewers, and the collaborations born out of that proximity - whether they're at Northern Monk or some of our esteemed brewing neighbours; whether that's at the festival, or in anticipation of it. And as it's brewed for a festival, it only felt right that it should be for the Patrons Project of Thought Bubble, a festival in its own right!
For the third Thought Bubble instalment we’ve teamed up with London’s Pressure Drop and Gravity Well.
Starting with a classic NE grist of Oats & Wheat, we veered off the beaten track slightly with the addition of Cara Gold malt, to add a dollop of caramel sweetness and the hue of a shimmering sunset.
Idaho 7 and Citra form the backbone of the hop profile, along with some NZ favourites Nelson, and lesser-known Rakau and Nectaron. These all combine for a DDH IPA with a melange of vivacious nectarine oil and sweet, sticky apricot juice, plus top-notes of fragrant elderflower, cucamelon, and mojito.
