This American IPA presents a vibrant sensory experience, blending traditional hop-forward character with unique fruit infusions. The double-dry-hopping with Huell Melon hops drives an aromatic profile of ripe honeydew and light floral notes. This is further elevated by the addition of fresh Mahabaleshwar strawberries and local melons, which manifest as bright berry brightness and juicy tropical undertones. Despite its fruity leanings, the beer maintains its stylistic roots with a firm, lingering hoppy bitterness and a clean, grainy malt backbone. Filtered for clarity, it delivers a crisp, refreshing finish that celebrates the harmony between modern hop varieties and seasonal organic fruit additions.
