Imperial IPA 9 º

Browar Gwarek

This Double IPA is a vibrant showcase of New Zealand terroir, featuring a specialized Super Sauvin blend of Nelson Sauvin from Freestyle hops and Phantasm Thiol Powder. The profile is dominated by an explosion of tropical and vinous character, where Nelson Sauvin delivers signature notes of crushed white grape and gooseberry. The addition of Phantasm intensifies the experience, unlocking deep layers of passionfruit and grapefruit zest. Despite its 9% strength, the malt remains a soft, bready support, allowing the thiol-boosted hop intensity to take center stage. It finishes with a clean, well-integrated bitterness that balances the lush fruitiness, making for a potent yet surprisingly approachable expression of modern hop science.

Appearance. Deep gold color (6 SRM). Heavy, opaque haze with a persistent, creamy white head that leaves thick, soapy lacing on the glass.

Aroma. High intensity hop aroma featuring distinct white grape, gooseberry, and crushed currants. The thiol-driven character adds potent layers of passionfruit, grapefruit, and guava. Malt is supportive and neutral with a light crackery note, while the fermentation is clean with no detectable solvent-like alcohol.

Taste. Bold, complex hop flavors of passionfruit, mango, and Sauvignon Blanc grapes lead the palate. Medium-low, soft, bready malt provides a neutral base. Bitterness is moderate but firm, preventing a heavy or cloying finish. The end is medium-dry with a lingering, resinous, and fruity aftertaste that masks the strength well.

Mouthfeel. Medium-full body with a soft, pillowy texture. Moderate carbonation. Features a smooth, restrained alcohol warmth consistent with its strength, without any harsh hop-derived astringency.
