American IPA 7.5 º

BinaryBrewing.co

This Modern NW IPA is a vibrant expression of contemporary hop-forward brewing, balancing a robust 7.5% ABV with a surprisingly approachable bitterness. The sensory profile is defined by an intense, dank aroma resulting from significant dry-hopping, which transitions seamlessly into a lush palate of stone fruit and bright citrus. While it maintains the classic American IPA structure, the emphasis is on aromatic intensity rather than sharp bitterness. A clean, supportive malt backbone allows the complex hop character to remain the focus, leading to a smooth, dry finish that highlights its Pacific Northwest roots through a refined balance of resin and fruit.

Appearance. Medium gold to light amber (6-9 SRM); clear with a very slight hop haze; persistent, frothy off-white head with excellent lacing.

Aroma. High intensity hop aroma featuring prominent dank, resinous notes, accompanied by waves of ripe apricot, peach, and zesty grapefruit. Low grainy-sweet malt character in the background; clean fermentation profile with minimal esters.

Taste. Immediate impact of stone fruit and citrus flavors. Medium-low grainy malt provides a neutral base. Bitterness is moderate—lower than aggressive West Coast examples—providing balance without harshness. Finishes dry and clean with a lingering resinous hop aftertaste.

Mouthfeel. Medium body with a smooth, velvety texture. Moderate-high carbonation. Noticeable but well-integrated alcohol warmth that enhances the mouthfeel without being hot or fusel.
