This West Coast IPA from Cierzo Brewing Co. rejects the modern juice trend in favor of classic clarity and a sharp, assertive profile. Pouring a brilliant gold, it leads with an intense, resinous aroma characterized by deep pine and pungent herbaceous notes. The 6.5% ABV provides a sturdy backbone for a powerful, clean bitterness that dominates the palate without being harsh. Supported by a lean, grainy malt presence, the flavor profile remains focused on the hops, delivering a refreshing experience that concludes with a bone-dry, lingering finish typical of the American IPA style's traditional California roots.
Appearance.Medium gold to light amber (approx. 7-10 SRM). Brilliant clarity with a medium-sized, persistent white head and light lacing.
Aroma.High intensity hop-forward aroma featuring prominent resin, pine needle, and fresh-cut herbs. Low, clean, grainy-sweet maltiness supports the hops. Fermentation profile is neutral with virtually no esters.
Taste.Initial hop-forward impression with intense resinous and herbal flavors. Malt flavor is low and clean, providing a minimal bready background. Bitterness is firm and high, balanced heavily toward the hops. The finish is very dry and refreshing with a long, clean, bitter aftertaste.
Mouthfeel.Medium body with a smooth, crisp texture. Moderate to high carbonation enhances the refreshing quality. Minimal, smooth alcohol warmth is present but well-integrated.
