This Hazy IPA presents a saturated, juicy sensory profile defined by a double dry-hopping of Citra and Dolcita hops. The Citra provides a high-intensity explosion of grapefruit and tropical mango, while the Dolcita hops contribute sweet citrus and soft stone fruit notes. A significant addition of oats creates a silky, opaque landscape that carries these intense fruit esters without any harsh bitterness. Pale malts offer a light, bready foundation, allowing the vibrant hop oils to shine. The finish is soft and succulent, leaving a lingering impression of pineapple and citrus zest on the palate.
Appearance.Straw to deep gold (4–6 SRM) with a dense, opaque haze providing a brilliant shine. Topped with a thick, rocky, meringue-like white head that demonstrates excellent retention and leaves thick lacing.
Aroma.High intensity dominated by tropical and citrus fruit. Pronounced notes of mango, grapefruit, and passionfruit from the Citra hops are paired with a sweet stone fruit essence from the Dolcita hops. Background malt is clean, lightly bready, and grainy with a subtle oat-like softness. Clean fermentation with mild fruity esters.
Taste.A massive wave of fruity hop flavors mirrors the aroma, leading with succulent orange, pineapple, and peach. The malt provides a low, supportive sweetness with a grainy, bready character. Bitterness is low to moderate, effectively balanced by the full body to ensure a juicy profile. The finish is off-dry and smooth with a lingering tropical fruit aftertaste devoid of hop burn.
Mouthfeel.Medium-full body with a notable silkiness and smoothness from the flaked oats. Carbonation is moderate, contributing to a soft, pillowy texture. Alcohol warmth is light and well-integrated. No astringency or raw starchiness.
