Imperial IPA 8.6 º

Fidens Brewing Co

This Double IPA delivers a vibrant sensory experience defined by a signature blend of Citra and Galaxy hops. The aroma is dominated by high-intensity tropical notes of fresh pineapple and bright orange zest, transitioning seamlessly into the flavor profile. Despite its 8.6% ABV, the beer is remarkably smooth, with the hop-derived citrus and tropical fruit notes taking center stage against a soft, neutral malt backdrop. The finish is dry and crisp, featuring a lingering bitterness that remains clean rather than harsh. It exemplifies a modern, hop-saturated approach where the fruit-forward character of the hops provides incredible depth and high drinkability.

Appearance. Deep gold to light orange (7-10 SRM) with a characteristic moderate haze. Features a persistent, creamy, white head with excellent lacing.

Aroma. High-intensity hop aroma featuring prominent notes of pineapple, orange peel, and passion fruit. A supportive, clean, neutral maltiness sits in the background, complemented by light fruity esters and a very soft, well-integrated alcohol presence.

Taste. The initial impression is an explosion of tropical fruit, specifically pineapple and citrus orange, driven by the Citra and Galaxy hops. Malt flavor is low and unobtrusive, providing just enough structure to support the moderately high bitterness. The finish is medium-dry and clean with a long, lingering hoppy aftertaste and no harshness.

Mouthfeel. Medium-full body with a smooth, velvety texture. Carbonation is moderate. Displays a gentle, restrained alcohol warmth that is well-integrated and never solventy.
