De Kromme Haring Cuttlefish Citra-Galaxy
Session IPA 4 º
This Session IPA delivers a vibrant sensory experience centered on the aromatic synergy of Citra and Galaxy hops. The use of the Trois yeast strain enhances the profile with distinctive esters of overripe pineapple and stone fruit. On the nose, Citra provides sharp lime and grapefruit, while Galaxy contributes deep passion fruit and a hint of resinous peach. The palate is light yet punchy, showcasing a lean malt backbone that allows the hop bitterness to remain crisp and refreshing. It finishes bone-dry with a lingering tropical citrus note, offering the complexity of a classic American IPA in a highly drinkable format.
Appearance. Pale straw to light gold (4-5 SRM). Topped with a dense, persistent white head that leaves intricate lacing. Exhibits a slight, luminous haze consistent with modern hopping techniques.
Aroma. High intensity hop aroma featuring prominent notes of passion fruit, peach, and citrus zest. The Trois yeast contributes a notable tropical ester profile reminiscent of pineapple. Malt is very low, appearing as a clean, crackery background. No DMS or diacetyl present.
Taste. Initial impression is hop-forward with flavors of grapefruit, lime, and passion fruit. Medium-high bitterness provides a sharp, clean edge that cuts through the light malt sweetness. The yeast-derived fruitiness adds complexity to the Citra and Galaxy character. Finishes very dry and crisp with a lingering resinous and tropical aftertaste.
Mouthfeel. Medium-light body with a smooth, slightly soft texture. Carbonation is moderate-high, providing a refreshing effervescence. No alcohol warmth is perceived, making it exceptionally sessionable. No astringency.
