Imperial IPA 9.4 º 44 IBU

Brouwerij Eleven
Oersoep

This Double IPA arrives with a saturated profile of tropical fruit, delivered through a heavy cargo of New World hops that define its assertive personality. A collaborative effort between Brouwerij Eleven and Oersoep, the beer presents a lush, juicy character reminiscent of mango and pineapple, anchored by a soft, grainy malt foundation. Despite its potent 9.4% ABV, it maintains a clean and relatively dry finish, allowing the firm hop bitterness to resonate without harshness. Uncle Dan offers a complex road trip of flavor, blending significant alcohol warmth with a vibrant, fruit-forward intensity that lingers long after the final sip.

Appearance. Gold to light orange-copper (SRM 8-12) with a persistent, off-white head that provides moderate lacing. While the style favors clarity, this version displays a notable haze consistent with its juicy, fruit-forward character.

Aroma. High intensity hop aroma dominated by tropical fruit, melon, and citrus zest. A supportive, clean, grainy malt presence sits in the background, complemented by a light, smooth alcohol note and subtle fruity fermentation esters.

Taste. Initial impression is a powerful wave of tropical and stone fruit flavors. A firm bitterness balances a low, supportive malt character that provides a soft mouthfeel without heavy caramel. The finish is medium-dry with a long, resinous, and hoppy aftertaste that remains clean and free of harshness.

Mouthfeel. Medium-full body with a smooth, velvety texture. Carbonation is moderate. A noticeable but well-integrated alcohol warmth provides a pleasant glow, lacking any solventy or hot characteristics.
