That stuff is really good! Our host’s clone Zombie Dirt is an annual spring brew for me.

Guanabana is one of the fruits my kids fell in love with in Ecuador. Only place we’ve ever found it. Did you brew that? I can imagine a little goes a pretty long way. It’s very sweet.
There is a cool restaurant in Jupiter, FL that I wondered where the name came from https://www.guanabanas.com/
Looks cool!
Expensive and not enough parking. They really push valet. Still is cool though.
That place is way too fancy for an old plow horse like me… I really enjoy quaffing some brews in a garage with a wood stove burning… Watching it snow… There’s a piece of heaven! Sneezles61
Good example of a ‘midwest’ ipa, along the lines of Bells Two Hearted, but packaging doesn’t state what hops…undoubtedly not a single hop with centennial like Two hearted.
From my understanding that is a single hop- Citra.
That’s what it tastes and smells like as I recall but it’s been a while.
Two hearted ale is %100 Centennial http://www.bellsbeer.com/beer/year-round/two-hearted-ale The clone our host sells is also.
I also like watching it snow. On the weather channel while sitting at a tiki bar quaffing some brews.
48° here this morning. I fired up the pellet stove to take the chill out of the house. Time to head south.
The clone is 100% Citra, I am pretty sure Zombie Dust is too. I brew this and my Pseudo Sue Clone that are all Citra, typically hit up a bulk Citra purchase from Yakima for those.

OK I’m confused. What beer and/or clone are we talking about here?
@voodoo_donut was referring to Zombie Dust and describing it as a midwest IPA, similar to Bell’s Two Hearted but not hopped with centennial.
@loopie_beer chimed in about Zombie Dust being single hop citra
Then @hd4mark chimed in regarding Bell’s Two Hearted.
So we’re talking about two beers.
At least that’s how I read it.

Thanks Rad. Now I get it. I have never had Zombie dust but have had and liked Two Hearted ale. I even made an AG clone using only Centennial of course.
Got into the blonde I made with the unknown hops. Tasty but definitely could use some tweaks to the grain. I think it’s going to be a good lawnmower beer.
You can buy recipe kits directly from Bells
$35 fora kit that doesn’t even include yeast…haha… Good idea on their part I guess but c’mon even NB’s dead ringer kit is less WITH yeast.
I buy sacks of grain, hops by the pound and save lots of yeast slurry. Figure $1/pound for grain and a couple ounces of hops I have about 15 bucks in 5 gals of all centennial IPA. That’s why I recommend all grain brewers get away from kits and do their own recipe building ASAP.
