BreWskey

CHROMAVINE presents a vibrant, tropical-forward expression of the Hazy IPA style, driven by a sophisticated hop blend. The use of Citra and Citra Dynaboost provides a foundation of bright grapefruit and ripe mango, while New Zealand's Rakau adds depth with lush stone fruit notes of apricot and plum. The addition of Motueka and Motueka Hop Kief layers in a zesty lime and crushed citrus finish. Its soft, pillowy texture and minimal bitterness emphasize a juicy character over bite, creating a highly aromatic experience where the high hop concentration delivers intense fruit saturation without any vegetal harshness or sharp edges.

Appearance. Pours a glowing, opaque straw-gold with a distinct orange hue. It is crowned by a dense, white, meringue-like head that exhibits high retention and leaves persistent, rocky lacing on the glass.

Aroma. High-intensity hop aroma featuring saturated notes of tropical mango, candied grapefruit, and passion fruit. Secondary layers of ripe apricot and yellow plum are complemented by a sharp lime zest character. The malt profile is neutral and clean, offering a faint bready, grainy background without any toast or caramel.

Taste. High to very high fruity hop flavor dominated by citrus oil, sweet lime, and stone fruit. The malt flavor is low, providing a soft, doughy base that supports the hops. Bitterness is restrained and smooth, providing balance without being sharp. The finish is off-dry and juicy, with lingering notes of tropical fruit and lime.

Mouthfeel. Medium-full body with a remarkably soft, pillowy, and smooth mouthfeel. Carbonation is moderate. There is no hop-derived astringency or harshness, and the 6.7% ABV provides only a very light, well-integrated warmth.
