Deciduous Brewing Company Sky Party
Imperial IPA 7.8 º
Sky Party is an intensely vibrant Double IPA that showcases a sophisticated triple-hop blend of Citra, Motueka, and Topaz. It presents a prominent aroma of lime zest and tropical passion fruit. The Citra hops deliver bright grapefruit and mango layers, while Motueka provides a signature crushed lime character, and Topaz adds a resinous, lychee depth. Despite its strength, the malt remains a clean, supportive backdrop, ensuring the hops remain the primary focus. A firm but smooth bitterness balances the light alcohol warmth, leading to a dry, citrus-forward finish that emphasizes high drinkability and bold hop intensity.
Appearance. Deep gold to light orange-copper (7-9 SRM) with a moderate-sized, persistent, white head that leaves significant lacing. Clarity is mostly clear with a slight hop-induced haze.
Aroma. High intensity hop-forward profile featuring bright lime zest, grapefruit, and tropical passion fruit. The Citra and Motueka provide a punchy citrus core, while Topaz adds a resinous undertone. Malt is low and neutral, providing a light grainy sweetness. Fermentation is clean with very low fruity esters.
Taste. Initial impression is dominated by explosive flavors of lime, mango, and lychee. The malt flavor is low and soft, serving as a neutral platform for the hops. Hop bitterness is high and firm but lacks harshness. Finishes dry to medium-dry with a lingering aftertaste of citrus rind and pine resin.
Mouthfeel. Medium body with a smooth, lean texture. Carbonation is medium-high, providing a crisp bite. A light, restrained alcohol warmth is present but well-integrated, with no hop-derived astringency.
