Verdant x Left Handed Giant The Doorway Effect

An 8% New England DIPA brewed in collaboration with Left Handed Giant

Earlier this year, and by pure coincidence, both breweries selected identical lots of Mosaic & Simcoe (Coleman Farm, Oregon) and Nectaron & Nelson Sauvin (Mac Hops, NZ). From there, the doors opened, and the recipes diverged. The result is two distinct 8% DIPAs that explore the wildly different consequences our brewing choices can have.

Our half of the story, ‘The Doorway Effect’, lands today on the webshop. It’s a big, hoppy monster of a DIPA designed to showcase the vibrancy of these specific lots. Expect saturated hop aroma and a rounded mouthfeel. It’s bright, zippy, juicy, and even a little wild around the edges.

Across the hallway, LHG have crafted their own interpretation: ‘Hidden Volumes’. Go check it out, it's available on their webshop now.

Same starting point, two different paths.
