Birra 08 11 Llúpols
This celebratory Blonde Ale presents an intense aromatic tapestry woven from an ambitious blend of 11 hops. Despite its light golden appearance, it drinks with the assertive presence of an IPA, delivering a firm bitterness of 60 IBUs. Vivid layers of citrus zest, tropical stone fruit, and delicate floral notes dominate the profile, supported by a clean, neutral graininess. The 6% ABV provides a light, integrated warmth that carries the complex hop oils through a crisp, dry finish. It is a vibrant, hop-forward interpretation of the style, balancing a smooth malt texture with a lingering, resinous punch.
Appearance. Deep gold (6 SRM) with brilliant clarity. Pours with a moderate, persistent white head that leaves fine lacing on the glass.
Aroma. High intensity hop aroma featuring a complex bouquet of citrus, passion fruit, and pine. Beneath the hop layers lies a low, clean bready malt character with neutral fermentation esters.
Taste. Initial soft bready malt flavors are quickly overtaken by a firm, assertive hop bitterness. Flavors of grapefruit peel and resinous herbs are prominent. The balance is decisively hop-forward, finishing medium-dry and clean with a lingering, crisp bitterness.
Mouthfeel. Medium body with a smooth, slightly creamy texture. Moderate carbonation. A light, pleasant alcohol warmth is present, reflecting its 6% strength without being harsh.
