On a visit to the famous Tianshan Tea City market, a few of our brewers were completely blown away by the incredible tea they sampled. Inspired, they began experimenting back home, learning how well the delicate, floral qualities of these teas worked in combination with certain hop varieties. This imperial IPA loaded with White Tea is the result of that bountiful trip and the resulting experimentation. The amazing aromas and flavor profile of this beer are witness to the joy of experimentation and the beautiful way hops and tea can play off one another. Featured Hops: Citra & Loral • Special Ingredient: White Peony Tea

12oz can pours with a clear copper body that has golden hues and supports a nice light tan head of foam that leaves behind some spotty lacing. The aroma offers up citrusy tangelo and orange as well as mango and guava leading into an herbal kind of white grape like sensation. The taste delivers similar notes of tangy juicy citrus lined with grapefruit like hop bitterness. To midway it becomes softer with sweet soft mango and guava. Toward the finish a mild degree of herbal sort of floral tea bubbles to the surface. Pretty nice.

Aroma: 8 | Appearance: 7 | Mouthfeel: 7 | Flavor: 8 | Overall: 7
Pours clear, vivid topaz with a thick and fairly persistent yellowish parchment head. Aroma offers piney hops, crisp fresh malt, not-so-subtle citrus, and a definite note of tea. Flavor yields piney and mainly woody hops with some bitterness, sweet and tangy citrus, crisp fresh malt, zesty tea. Texture presents good smooth body and peppy fizz. Soar like a dragon.
