Verdant x Omnipollo: Create Dangerously

Country: UK | Style: Double India Pale Ale | Size: 440ml | %ABV: 8

From Verdant:

We couldn’t pass up the chance to brew a very special beer with Omnipollo and to borrow one of their favourite tricks: fruit adjuncts! For our first-ever collab with them, we’ve created a DIPA bursting with fruit character and dank pungency. It’s loaded with Mosaic, Nectaron, and Eclipse hops, plus a cheeky hit of passion fruit purée added during fermentation.

We don’t usually play with fruit adjuncts in our beers, but chatting with Henok, Omnipollo’s founder, about how they use fruit to elevate flavour was seriously inspiring. After testing a few different purées, we all agreed that passion fruit was the perfect match, cutting through the booziness while enhancing the tropical notes from the hops.
