Way back of the fridge. Forget how old this is

Other Half’s R&D location has been making a lot of IPAs with Sundew yeast. Personally I haven’t been a fan of those beers.HB NEIPA: Citra, I7, Strata. Tried this one with a different yeast, Sundew. Its "ok" but prob won't use again for an NEIPA. Still solid beer though.

Yeah, I was taken by the "red-berry" notion, particularly strawberry. I was hoping to pull some of the purported strawberry out of the strata (which I have never been able to detect). Pre-dry hop, I definitely got some of the red-berry vibe but probably more of the raspberry type, but it kinda clashed and wasn't that complimentary with the citrus/orange/passion fruitiness I typically get from the hop combo of Citra/I7/Strata. I also got some dank from this lot of strata too which further clashed with sundew IMO. The hop combo, Ive done 3-4 times and its still a good beer, just not what I was going for. Just seems a little clumsy.Other Half’s R&D location has been making a lot of IPAs with Sundew yeast. Personally I haven’t been a fan of those beers.
