Carma California Dreaming
This West Coast American IPA delivers a vibrant hop experience, balancing a clean malt profile with a refreshing finish. The aromatic intensity is driven by a potent blend of Citra and Mosaic hops, showcasing bright notes of tropical fruit, citrus, and berry, while Summit provides a grounding resinous and spicy edge. At 6.3% ABV, the malt presence remains supportive and lean, allowing the 46 IBU bitterness to assert itself clearly through the dry finish. It is a classic expression of the style, focusing on hop purity and drinkability, resulting in a crisp, bitter, and fruit-forward sensory profile.
Appearance. Color ranges from medium gold to light reddish-amber (6–14 SRM). Generally clear with a medium-sized, white to off-white head characterized by good persistence and moderate lacing.
Aroma. High hop intensity featuring prominent citrus, tropical fruit, and light berry notes. A low, clean, grainy maltiness supports the hop presentation, while the fermentation profile is neutral with no significant esters.
Taste. Initial hop-forward impression of grapefruit, mango, and pine. Low grainy maltiness provides a neutral foundation. Bitterness is medium-high and clean, becoming particularly noticeable in the finish. The aftertaste is hoppy and dry with a supportive but restrained malt backbone.
Mouthfeel. Medium body with a smooth, non-astringent texture. Carbonation is medium-high, contributing to the refreshing character. A very light, smooth alcohol warmth is present.
