Vibrance is a celebratory Hazy IPA that showcases a sophisticated hop trio. Citra provides a foundation of bright mango and zesty grapefruit, while the Nelson PM22 adds distinct layers of crushed white grapes and gooseberry. Loral introduces a subtle, elegant floral lift that distinguishes this anniversary brew. It pours with a characteristically opaque, luminous glow. The palate is defined by an explosion of tropical fruit and stone fruit flavors, supported by a soft, pillowy malt backbone of bready grain. With its restrained bitterness and exceptionally smooth finish, this beer delivers a refined juicy experience that highlights hop biotransformation and a silky, approachable mouthfeel.
Appearance.Straw to gold (SRM 4-6) with an opaque, hazy appearance that exhibits a characteristic shine. It is topped by a dense, white, meringue-like head with high retention and thick lacing.
Aroma.High intensity hop aroma featuring tropical fruit, passion fruit, and citrus from the Citra, alongside the vinous, white-grape character of Nelson PM22. Loral contributes delicate floral and herbal notes. Low, neutral, bready malt presence in the background with no caramel or toast.
Taste.High fruity hop flavors echoing the aroma with mango, gooseberry, and a floral-citrus blend. Low malt flavor, primarily clean and grainy. Bitterness is low to medium-low, well-masked by a full body. The finish is soft and off-dry with a lingering fruity aftertaste devoid of harshness.
Mouthfeel.Medium-full body with a smooth, soft texture. Moderate carbonation. No astringency or harshness. Light, well-integrated alcohol warmth consistent with its strength.
