Feldschlösschen IPA presents a refined take on the classic American IPA, showcasing a vibrant hop trio of Citra, Simcoe, and Mosaic. The sensory journey begins with an inviting bouquet of grapefruit, tropical mango, and a distinct forest-pine resonance. A clean, crackery malt base allows these bold American hops to lead the palate, delivering a focused punch of resinous bitterness and stone fruit flavors. The finish is crisp and decisively dry, lingering with a pleasant citrus peel zest. This medium-bodied ale balances its 6% ABV with a smooth, approachable texture, making it a bright and refreshing expression of modern hop-forward brewing.
Appearance.Radiant deep gold color (approx. 8 SRM) with excellent clarity. It supports a frothy, long-lasting off-white head that leaves delicate lacing on the glass.
Aroma.High intensity hop aroma featuring prominent citrus zest and tropical notes from Citra and Mosaic. Earthy pine and resinous undertones from Simcoe provide depth. Clean, low grainy-sweet malt character with no significant yeast esters.
Taste.Bold hop flavors of grapefruit, passionfruit, and pine dominate the initial impression. A medium-high bitterness provides a clean, sharp edge that persists into a dry finish. The malt is supportive and pale-focused, offering a light toasted-bread character.
Mouthfeel.Medium body with a smooth, slightly oily hop texture. Moderate-high carbonation provides a crisp bite. Very light, well-integrated alcohol warmth is present but subtle.
