Off Kilter is a vibrant American Pale Ale that showcases a modern, fruit-forward profile. Utilizing the Pomona yeast strain, the beer delivers an expressive ester profile that amplifies its tropical character. A significant dry hop featuring Eclipse, Chinook, and Amarillo drives an intense sensory experience of mandarin, zesty citrus, and sweet stone fruit. While Chinook provides a classic resinous pine backbone, the Eclipse and Amarillo hops emphasize bright orange and grapefruit notes. The result is a balanced, highly drinkable ale where a clean, bready malt base supports a complex wave of New World hop flavors, finishing with a crisp and refreshing bitterness.
