Citra/Nelson/Amarillo IPA update. This was supposed to be a west coast IPA but never cleared up after gelatin, and definitely has that juicy full mouthfeel despite the sugar, low F.G. and high sulfate. Calculated IBU's are higher than my typical NEIPA but doesn't taste like it. Super ripe mango and papaya on the nose. Pineapple, mango, melon and a hint of white wine in the flavor, a little dank too. Absolutely delicious, one of the best IPAs I've made in a while despite my intentions.
