Amundsen Bryggeri

Cumulus Lupulus is a soft, inviting Hazy IPA that showcases the distinctive character of Cashmere hops. It pours with a striking opacity, reminiscent of its namesake clouds, delivering a saturated profile of lemon zest, sweet melon, and ripe peach. The aromatic intensity is high, blending tropical fruit notes with a subtle, silky coconut undertone unique to the hop variety. On the palate, a gentle bready malt base supports a wave of citrus and stone fruit flavors, leading to a smooth, low-bitterness finish. This approachable, medium-bodied ale balances juicy intensity with a refreshing, clean fermentation profile, making it a quintessential modern Hazy IPA.

Appearance. Straw to light yellow color (3-5 SRM). Distinctly hazy to opaque with a luminous quality. Features a thick, rocky, white meringue-like head with excellent retention and lacing.

Aroma. High intensity hop aroma dominated by lemon, lime, and melon from the Cashmere hops, with secondary notes of peach and a hint of tropical coconut. Low bready and grainy malt presence provides a neutral foundation. Clean fermentation with very subtle fruity esters.

Taste. Initial impression is a burst of tropical and citrus fruit. High flavor intensity of lemon zest, cantaloupe, and stone fruit. Malt flavor is low, suggesting soft white bread or flour. Low to medium-low bitterness that is well-integrated and never harsh. Finishes soft and off-dry with lingering fruit notes.

Mouthfeel. Medium body with a characteristically soft, plush texture. Carbonation is moderate. Extremely smooth on the palate with no hop harshness or astringency. Alcohol warmth is negligible.
