Caleya Goma 2 is a vibrant American IPA that showcases the expressive synergy between a classic Maris Otter malt base and the punchy tropical profiles of Citra and Mosaic hops. It pours a luminous gold with a persistent white head, releasing intense aromas of mango, passion fruit, and bright citrus. The palate follows suit, where the biscuity, slightly nutty depth of the Maris Otter provides a lean but sturdy foundation for explosive flavors of pineapple and grapefruit. With a moderate bitterness that cleanses the palate, this refreshing ale finishes dry and crisp, leaving a lingering trail of resinous hop character and tropical fruit.
