Imperial IPA 8 º

Blackout Brewing

This Double IPA presents a vivid sensory profile driven by a potent trio of hops. Citra leads with punchy grapefruit and lime zest, while Enigma introduces complex notes of red currant and white grape. BRU-1 rounds out the experience with an unmistakable blast of fresh pineapple. The aromatic intensity is matched by a clean, neutral malt backbone that allows the hop saturation to shine. A firm but smooth bitterness provides structure, leading to a dry, resinous finish. At 8% ABV, a gentle warmth integrates seamlessly into the medium body, creating a potent yet drinkable modern interpretation of the style.

Appearance. Pale gold to light orange (6-8 SRM). Pours with a moderate-sized, persistent white head and good lacing. Generally clear, though a very faint hop haze is acceptable for the style.

Aroma. High intensity hop aroma featuring prominent notes of pineapple, grapefruit, and tropical melon. Nuanced berry and stone fruit esters are present, supported by a very low, neutral, grainy malt character. Fermentation is clean with no solventy alcohol.

Taste. Initial impression is a burst of tropical fruit and citrus hops. Pineapple and grape skin flavors are prominent. Bitterness is moderately high and firm but remains smooth without harshness. The malt character is low and unobtrusive, providing a soft, grainy foundation. The finish is dry with a lingering hoppy and resinous aftertaste.

Mouthfeel. Medium body with a smooth, soft texture. Carbonation is moderate-high. A restrained, smooth alcohol warmth is present, reflecting the 8% ABV. Devoid of harsh hop-derived astringency.
