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

    750ml bottle that pours a hazy, light-golden colour with a big frothy, almost creamy white cap, good stay and some foamy lacing. I do love that the El Dorado hops cover up the Brett earthiness a little. It is the same in the taste, with a hoppy grassiness over the wild yeast. The barrel does not give out as much vanilla like others, but seems to calm the Brettiness. I do like this beer, as it seems to use the hop in the right way. Different, hoppy, not too earthy and dry enough. Well brewed !
