This American IPA from Dougall’s presents a vibrant and assertive sensory profile defined by its 6.8% ABV and clean fermentation. The aroma offers an intense burst of grapefruit zest, sticky pine resin, and subtle hints of tropical mango, supported by a restrained, grainy malt backbone. On the palate, the hop-forward character dominates with a firm bitterness that cuts through light toasted malt notes, leading to a crisp, dry finish. The experience is refreshed by lively carbonation and a smooth, medium-bodied mouthfeel, making it a classic representation of the style that prioritizes hop clarity and drinkability over heavy malt presence.
