Bad Bones

Bad Bones Orthopedic is a modern Hazy IPA that exemplifies a saturated hop profile through the use of Nelson Sauvin and Superdelic varieties. The aroma is an intense bouquet of crushed white grapes, gooseberries, and sweet red berry candy, backed by a soft tropical medley of passionfruit. Visually, it presents a luminous, opaque straw hue with a dense, meringue-like white head. The palate is defined by a pillowy, medium-full body that carries lush flavors of mango and citrus. The bitterness is restrained and smooth, allowing the juicy hop character to persist into an off-dry, clean finish with minimal resinous linger.

Appearance. Color ranges from straw to deep gold (3-6 SRM) with a high degree of opacity and a luminous haze. Features a thick, rocky, white head with excellent retention and significant lacing.

Aroma. High intensity hop aroma dominated by white grape and gooseberry from Nelson Sauvin, complemented by the red fruit and citrus candy notes of Superdelic. Background notes of mango and passionfruit are supported by a light, bready malt character and neutral fermentation esters.

Taste. Initial impression is a burst of tropical and stone fruit. Strong flavors of white wine grapes, ripe berries, and orange zest lead the profile. Malt flavor is low and bready, providing a soft foundation. Bitterness is low to medium-low, well-masked by the body, leading to a smooth, fruity, off-dry finish without any harsh or grassy aftertaste.

Mouthfeel. Medium-full body with a characteristically soft, pillowy texture. Carbonation is moderate, contributing to a smooth mouthfeel. Very light alcohol warmth is present but well-integrated, with no detectable astringency or hop burn.
