This American IPA from Boundary Brewing presents a bold, modern hop profile defined by a heavy 16g/l dry hop addition. The sensory experience is led by the vibrant interplay of Azacca, Citra, and Amarillo hops, which deliver a complex bouquet of ripe mango, pithy grapefruit, and sweet orange zest. Beneath the intense tropical and citrus layers lies a clean, supporting malt base that provides a subtle grainy backbone without distracting from the hop intensity. The finish is decidedly dry and crisp, punctuated by a firm, resinous bitterness that invites another sip, perfectly encapsulating the refreshing yet assertive nature of the style.
Appearance.Deep gold to light amber (approx. 8 SRM) with a brilliant clarity. Topped by a persistent, medium-sized white head that leaves delicate lacing on the glass.
Aroma.High intensity hop aroma featuring prominent notes of tropical mango, crushed pineapple, and bright citrus zest. Subtle floral and spicy orange undertones follow. Low, clean, bready malt sweetness provides a neutral background with a very low, clean fermentation profile.
Taste.Immediate high hop flavor mirroring the aroma with layers of grapefruit, tangerine, and stone fruit. Bitterness is firm and assertive but clean, balancing a low grainy-sweet malt character. The mid-palate shows a light resinous pine quality. Finishes dry with a lingering, hoppy, and pleasantly bitter aftertaste.
Mouthfeel.Medium-bodied with a smooth, slightly oily texture from the heavy hopping. Carbonation is medium-high, providing a crisp bite. Alcohol warmth is very subtle and well-integrated.
