Barbarian 174 IPA is a robust American IPA defined by its striking coppery appearance and a bold hop profile. This beer delivers an intense bitterness that pays homage to the brewery's roots, seamlessly integrated with a supportive malt backbone. The sensory experience is led by a prominent hop presence featuring classic resinous and citrus notes, which are tempered by the subtle sweetness of toasted malts. At 7% ABV, it offers a full-flavored, moderately strong profile that finishes with a clean, lingering bitterness, exemplifying a well-structured balance between high-intensity hopping and smooth malt character.
Appearance.Deep copper to light reddish-amber color (approx. 12-14 SRM). Clear body with a medium-sized, off-white head showing good persistence and light lacing.
Aroma.High intensity hop aroma with prominent notes of pine, citrus zest, and a hint of tropical fruit. Moderate clean, bready, and light caramel malt provides a solid foundation. Generally clean fermentation profile with negligible esters.
Taste.Assertive initial bitterness followed by high hop flavors of resin and grapefruit. The mid-palate reveals a moderate malt sweetness featuring light caramel and toasted bread notes that balance the intense bitterness. Finishes medium-dry with a lingering, clean hoppy aftertaste.
Mouthfeel.Medium body with a smooth texture. Carbonation is moderate to medium-high. A very light, well-integrated alcohol warmth is present without any harshness or astringency.
