Imperial IPA 8.4 º 25 IBU

Brouwerij de Molen

This Double IPA presents a lush, aromatic profile defined by its vibrant hop trio. Citra provides a punchy grapefruit and lime foundation, while Amarillo adds layers of sweet orange and ripe apricot. El Dorado elevates the experience with intense tropical notes of pineapple and watermelon. While the name suggests a juicy character, it maintains the structural integrity of a classic Double IPA with a firm, clean bitterness and a dry finish. The 8.4% ABV is masterfully integrated, offering only a gentle warmth that complements the supportive, grainy malt backbone. It is a bold, modern interpretation of the style that balances hop saturation with high drinkability.

Appearance. Pours a deep gold to pale orange (approx. 8 SRM). Features a moderate-sized, persistent off-white head with excellent lacing. Clarity is mostly clear with a slight, modern haze that does not reach opacity.

Aroma. High intensity hop aroma dominated by tropical pineapple and mango, supported by bright citrus notes of grapefruit and orange peel. Very low grainy-sweet malt character. Fermentation is clean with a very subtle, pleasant floral ester and no solventy alcohol.

Taste. Initial impression is a wave of tropical fruit and citrus resins. Prominent flavors of mango, orange marmalade, and apricot. Bitterness is moderately high and firm but lacks harshness. The malt is clean and unobtrusive, providing a soft bready base. The finish is dry and crisp with a lingering pithy bitterness and hop oils.

Mouthfeel. Medium body with a smooth, slightly oily texture from hop resins. Carbonation is medium-high, providing a lively scrub on the palate. A soft, restrained alcohol warmth is present but remains smooth and well-integrated.
