Connecting Dots is both a New England double IPA and a cool collaboration between the Toronto location of Collective Arts Brewing and the Ontario College of Craft & Design University. This beer, an 8.5% bruiser, comes in 500mL bottles wrapped in attractive labels. The beer inside is a milky orange and it pours with a very fluffy and durable white head. Connecting Dots is brewed with Azacca, Citra, and Lotus hops, as well as wheat and oats.
The nose on this DIPA is unexpectedly mild, with muted notes of orange and lime. The flavour features juicy citrus and the texture is incredibly smooth. I’d have liked it to be a lit
tle more assertive and a little less sweet, but I quite liked the burst of boozy heat at the back end.
