Colder American Chilipa
This Double IPA presents a bold sensory profile defined by its use of 100% American hops and unique additions of mango juice and habanero peppers. It pours a deep amber with a dense, white head. The aroma is a vibrant collision of tropical mango and classic American hop notes—citrus and stone fruit—backed by a subtle hint of unrefined cane sugar. On the palate, a firm bitterness is balanced by fruit-driven sweetness, finishing with a distinctive, glowing habanero heat in the aftertaste. The 8.2% ABV provides a smooth warmth that complements the spicy tingle, resulting in a complex, multifaceted strong ale.
Appearance. Deep amber color (12-14 SRM) with good clarity. Features a moderate-sized, persistent white head with excellent lacing.
Aroma. Intense hop aroma featuring prominent citrus, tropical mango, and stone fruit notes. A supportive, grainy-sweet maltiness is present in the background, enriched by the floral sweetness of unrefined cane sugar. Fermentation is clean with a subtle, well-integrated alcohol presence.
Taste. Strong and complex hop flavors of grapefruit and tropical fruit are immediate. The initial impression is moderately sweet from the mango juice and cane sugar, followed by a moderately high bitterness. The finish is medium-dry, characterized by a lingering hoppy bitterness and a sharp, spicy habanero glow that persists in the retrogusto. Malt character is clean and supportive.
Mouthfeel. Medium-full body with a smooth, creamy texture. Medium-high carbonation. Noticeable alcohol warmth is present but restrained. A distinct spicy tingle and warmth from the habanero is felt on the palate and throat.
