IPA Other 7.1 º 68 IBU

BrewDog

This idiosyncratic American IPA offers a unique sensory voyage, merging aggressive coastal hopping with a distinct maritime influence. The 7.1% ABV provides a steady warmth that carries an intense citrus and pine resin profile, typical of the style but deepened by the addition of distilled sea-salt and buckweed. Notes of sun-drenched citrus and sharp tropical fruit collide with a subtle, mineral salinity and a whisper of rum-infused depth. The finish is assertively bitter and bracingly dry, evoking the spray of the North Sea while maintaining the clean, hop-forward integrity of a classic craft India Pale Ale.

Appearance. Deep gold to light reddish-amber in color (8–12 SRM). It maintains a medium-sized, off-white head with excellent persistence and fine, persistent lacing. Clarity is brilliant with no significant haze.

Aroma. Aroma intensity is high, featuring prominent notes of grapefruit, resinous pine, and tropical mango. A distinct mineral salinity, reminiscent of sea spray, is layered over a low, crackery malt character. A subtle, spicy rum-like sweetness and herbal notes from the buckweed provide unique complexity.

Taste. Initial impression is high hop bitterness followed by flavors of orange peel, pine, and resin. A mid-palate mineral quality from the sea-salt enhances the perceived crispness. The buckweed adds a faint, tart herbal edge. Malt is low but supportive, with a light toasty graininess. The finish is very dry and assertively bitter with a lingering hoppy aftertaste.

Mouthfeel. Medium body with a smooth, slightly slick texture. Carbonation is medium-high, providing a lively, effervescent sensation. A gentle, smooth alcoholic warmth is present but well-integrated.
