Basqueland Brewing

This modern West Coast IPA presents a luminous, lean profile shaped by Pilsner malts and rice flakes, ensuring the hop showcase remains the focal point. A potent dry-hop addition of Citra and Galaxy drives an exuberant aromatic profile defined by fresh peach, tangy pineapple, and zesty passion fruit. The palate is brilliantly crisp, delivering a firm, clean bitterness that cuts through the light malt backbone. It finishes exceptionally dry and refreshing, capturing the exhilarating energy of its namesake surf break with a lingering tropical resinous note and a snappy, clean conclusion.

Appearance. Color is medium gold (SRM 5). Features a medium-sized, bright white head with excellent persistence and fine, delicate lacing. Clarity is brilliant.

Aroma. High intensity hop aroma dominated by tropical notes of pineapple and passion fruit, complemented by stone fruit peach. Very low, clean, grainy malt character from the pilsner base. Fermentation is clean with no significant yeast esters.

Taste. Initial impression is a burst of tropical fruit including pineapple and passion fruit skin. Low grainy-sweet malt flavor provides a neutral foundation. Bitterness is firm and assertive (high), providing a classic hop-forward balance. The finish is very dry and crisp with a lingering, clean, hoppy aftertaste.

Mouthfeel. Medium-light body with a smooth, crisp texture. Carbonation is moderate-high. Alcohol warmth is very light and well-integrated. No astringency.
