961 Beer

This American IPA delivers a bold sensory experience centered on a vibrant hop-forward profile and refreshing bitterness. The aroma is dominated by intense notes of grapefruit zest, resinous pine, and a subtle hint of tropical fruit, all supported by a clean, grainy malt backbone. On the palate, the assertive hop character translates into flavors of citrus peel and forest resin, balanced by a light toasted malt sweetness. With its crisp, dry finish and lingering hoppy aftertaste, this ale captures the quintessential West Coast spirit, offering a bright and invigorating character that remains well-balanced and highly drinkable.

Appearance. Pours a clear, deep golden to light amber color with a medium-sized, off-white head that shows good persistence and leaves consistent lacing.

Aroma. High intensity hop aroma featuring prominent notes of citrus peel, pine resin, and floral undertones. Low, clean, grainy maltiness provides a subtle background, with a very clean fermentation profile and no significant esters.

Taste. Initial impression is hoppy and bitter. Medium-high hop flavors of grapefruit and pine are supported by a low, grainy malt character with hints of light caramel. Bitterness is firm and persistent through the dry finish, leading to a crisp aftertaste of citrus and hops.

Mouthfeel. Medium body with a smooth texture and no harshness. Carbonation is medium-high, providing a lively mouthfeel. A very light, smooth alcohol warmth is present but well-integrated.
