Bad Bones

Bad Bones Skin Graph is an assertive Double IPA that showcases a sophisticated, modern hop profile. The aromatic intensity is driven by a layered blend of Citra, Motueka, and Luminosa, delivering a vibrant bouquet of lime zest, tropical passionfruit, and sun-ripened peach. At 8.1% ABV, the beer maintains a lean, approachable structure with a neutral malt backbone that allows the hops to remain the primary focus. The palate experience is defined by a firm, clean bitterness and a dry finish, emphasizing the bright citrus and stone fruit characteristics without the heavy residual sweetness often found in high-gravity ales.

Appearance. Pours a deep gold to light orange-copper with moderate clarity, though a slight hop haze is present. Supports a persistent, creamy off-white head with excellent lacing.

Aroma. High aromatic intensity featuring punchy notes of lime zest and lemon peel from the Motueka, layered with Citra's tropical mango and grapefruit. Luminosa adds nuances of peach, guava, and apricot. Malt is low and neutral, providing a clean, grainy base with minimal fermentation esters.

Taste. Strong hop flavors of tropical fruit, lime, and stone fruit dominate the initial impression. Bitterness is high but clean and non-astringent. The malt profile is supportive and soft, lacking heavy caramel or toast. It finishes dry to medium-dry with a lingering resinous and citrusy aftertaste.

Mouthfeel. Medium body with a smooth, velvety texture. Carbonation is medium-high, providing a crisp bite that accentuates the hop bitterness. A restrained, pleasant alcohol warmth is noticeable but well-integrated.
