American IPA 6.5 º 70 IBU

7venth Sun Brewery

This vibrant American IPA presents a clean, hop-forward profile led by the classic duo of Simcoe and Citra hops. The experience begins with an inviting bouquet of bright citrus peel, passionfruit, and a distinct piney resin. Its pale, lean body allows the hop character to remain the focal point, delivering a crisp, fruity flavor profile that avoids heavy caramel sweetness. A well-integrated, medium bitterness provides structure without overwhelming the palate, leading into a refreshing and remarkably dry finish. It exemplifies the style's potential for high drinkability while maintaining a complex, punchy hop presence throughout the glass.

Appearance. Straw to pale gold (6-8 SRM). Topped by a medium-sized, persistent white head with fine-textured lacing. Brilliant clarity with a sparkling appearance.

Aroma. High intensity. Dominated by citrus (grapefruit, lime) from the Citra hops and earthy, piney resin with hints of passionfruit from the Simcoe. Low, clean, grainy maltiness provides a neutral backdrop. Very clean fermentation profile with minimal esters.

Taste. Hop-forward initial impression featuring juicy tropical fruit and zesty citrus. Low grainy-sweet malt flavor supports the hop intensity without adding toast or caramel notes. Bitterness is moderate, balanced by the hop oils. The finish is crisp and decidedly dry, leaving a lingering citrus and piney aftertaste.

Mouthfeel. Medium-light body with a smooth, clean texture. Carbonation is medium-high, providing a lively prickle. Very light, well-integrated alcohol warmth consistent with its 6.5% ABV. No astringency.
