Epic Brewing Company RUSH
IPA - India Pale Ale 7.2 º
Epic Brewing Company’s RUSH is a vibrant American IPA that captures the high-energy profile of New Zealand hops. Dominated by the unique character of Nelson Sauvin, the beer presents an exhilarating sensory journey featuring intense layers of fresh gooseberry, tropical passionfruit, and a sharp citrus zest. The 7.2% ABV provides a clean, supporting warmth that integrates seamlessly with a light, grainy malt backbone. This balance allows the sophisticated, white-wine-like elegance of the hops to remain the focal point. Each sip concludes with a dry, assertive bitterness, delivering a crisp and exhilarating finish that embodies the thrill of a freefall.
Appearance. Color is a brilliant medium gold (approx. 7 SRM). Features a medium-sized, white head with excellent persistence and fine-beaded lacing.
Aroma. High intensity hop aroma featuring prominent New World notes of crushed white wine grapes, gooseberry, and tropical passionfruit. Low, clean, grainy-sweet maltiness provides a neutral base, while the fermentation profile remains characteristically clean.
Taste. Initial impression is a burst of vibrant hop flavor, leading with gooseberry and citrus zest. Medium-high bitterness is firm but clean, supporting the dry finish. Low grainy malt flavors provide a brief structural support before a lingering, hoppy aftertaste of passionfruit and resin takes hold. Fermentation is clean with no significant yeast esters.
Mouthfeel. Medium body with a smooth, slick texture. Carbonation is medium-high, providing a refreshing prickle on the tongue. A light, smooth alcohol warmth is present but well-integrated, with no hop-derived astringency.
