Imperial IPA 8.4 º 53 IBU

Brooklyn Brewery

Brooklyn Blast! is a robust Double IPA that strikes a potent balance between resinous American hops and earthy English varieties. The sensory experience begins with a deep amber hue and a lasting white crown, releasing high-intensity aromas of fresh pine, grapefruit pith, and soft stone fruit like apricot. On the palate, a supportive bakery-fresh malt backbone provides a platform for complex layers of resin, earthy grassiness, and bright citrus. At 8.4% ABV, it offers a smooth, integrated warmth that complements a firm, lingering bitterness, resulting in a clean yet impactful finish characteristic of the style.

Appearance. Dark amber to copper color (12-14 SRM) with brilliant clarity. Features a generous, thick, white head with excellent persistence and lacing.

Aroma. High intensity hop aroma characterized by dominant notes of pine resin and citrusy grapefruit. Supporting secondary aromas include light apricot stone fruit and a soft, bready malt base.

Taste. Initial bready, bakery-like malt sweetness quickly transitions into a complex hop profile of resin, grapefruit, and an earthy, grassy bitterness. High bitterness is well-integrated and firm but not harsh. Finishes balanced and medium-dry with a lingering hoppy aftertaste.

Mouthfeel. Medium body with a smooth, slightly oily texture. Moderate carbonation. Noticeable but smooth alcohol warmth without being hot or solventy.
