Imperial IPA 8.5 º 59 IBU

Chatham Brewing

This Double IPA radiates an intense sensory profile defined by its powerhouse trio of Nelson, Mosaic, and Citra hops. On the nose, it offers a complex interplay of crushed white grape and gooseberry from the Nelson, layered with the distinct blueberry and tropical notes of Mosaic. The Citra provides a bright, citrusy backbone of grapefruit and mango. At 8.5% ABV, a smooth, warming sensation complements the clean, neutral malt base. The experience concludes with a firm, lingering bitterness and a dry finish that maximizes drinkability while showcasing a bold, resinous, and fruit-forward hop character.

Appearance. Gold to light orange-copper in color (7-9 SRM) with a moderate-sized, persistent, off-white head that leaves significant lacing. Clarity is generally clear with a very slight, modern haze acceptable for the style.

Aroma. Intense hop aroma featuring a complex bouquet of passion fruit, mango, and citrus zest. Distinctive notes of white wine grapes and gooseberry are present, supported by a subtle berry-like sweetness. Malt character is low and neutral, with a very light, clean alcohol presence.

Taste. Strong and complex hop flavors of citrus, stone fruit, and tropical berries dominate the palate. Bitterness is moderately high but remains smooth and free of harshness. A low, clean, soft malt profile supports the hop intensity without adding significant sweetness. The finish is medium-dry with a lingering, resinous, and hoppy aftertaste.

Mouthfeel. Medium body with a smooth texture and moderate to medium-high carbonation. A restrained, smooth alcohol warmth is present but integrated. No harsh hop-derived astringency is detected.
