Idaho 7 Pale Ale
5.3% Pale Ale - New England
Varies from 5.2% - 6.3%. Idaho 7 is a varietal that has come into our brewery lives and completely charmed us with its pronounced flavour intensity and incredible aromatic notes. We’ve explored single-hop tributes with this varietal previously, employing it in an all out, amped up DDH Oat IPA, but we wanted to opt for something a little more reeled in, laid back and relaxed this time around. Having become accustomed to the unique characteristics of this hop, we agreed those pink grapefruit, apricot, and mango notes are best served in an easygoing, smashable pale ale. With a gentle 25kg dry hop charge offset by a 10kg addition in the whirlpool, this beer has all the qualities of a juicy, hop forward beer, with those underlying earthy black tea and pine needle notes to keep it positively Polly’s.

What a beer. The complexity from this one hop is unbelievable. Having had the single hop Thornbridge version and it's soooooooooooooo much better. Tropical, a bit dry and bitter at the end but it swirls with flavour as it washes over the tongue. Really thick for 5.5% pale. Beautiful beer, must try.

Deep amber coloured brew and opaque. Nicely hoppy on the nose with plentiful amount of apricot and mango supported with pine. Soft mouthfeel with medium body and a long finish where grapefruit resides. The mango and it's alot more subdued here compared with in the aroma, instead apricot is stronger and pine stands out more. Even though this brew is richly juicy it ends quite dry and sharp with pine and grapefruit taking over.
