Halcyon: Tunnel Vision El Dorado

Organic Single Hop Brett IPA • 6.2 % • Halcyon Barrel House

The Tunnel Vision project from Halcyon explores the use of a single type of hop in brewing a brett IPA. In this case the variety of hop in focus is organic El Dorado.

History & Style

Tunnel Vision El Dorado is aged two months in oak barrels, and extensively dry-hopped.

Tasting Notes

El Dorado hops contribute lots of tropical pineapple and grapefruit notes in the aroma, with hints of brett (herbal, barnyard). Pronounced bitterness is like a traditional British IPA. Fruity lime and subtle piney from the hops define the flavour, with stronger echos of brett character in the flavour.
