Fidens Brewing Co presents a masterclass in hop expression with Fresh Picked Flowers Amarillo, a Hazy IPA that leverages a specialized liquid nitrogen process to preserve the delicate oils of the harvest. The aroma is dominated by the signature orange peel and floral notes of fresh Amarillo, seamlessly layered over a lush Citra base that contributes bursts of tropical mango and zesty lime. A soft, pillowy mouthfeel provides a platform for these intense fruit flavors to shine without the distraction of harsh bitterness. This beer showcases the vibrant, green essence of the harvest, finishing with a clean, juice-like brightness that highlights the interplay between the two hop varieties.
Appearance.4 SRM. Opaque, glowing golden-orange with a dense, rocky, meringue-like white head that demonstrates excellent retention and leaves thick lacing.
Aroma.High intensity aroma featuring a saturated blend of navel orange and floral blossoms from the fresh Amarillo hops, supported by Citra's pineapple and grapefruit zest. Background malt is clean and lightly bready, with a neutral fermentation profile.
Taste.Explodes with vibrant citrus and stone fruit. Amarillo provides distinct mandarin orange and apricot, while Citra adds layers of passionfruit. Bitterness is moderate but perceived as low due to the soft, grainy malt sweetness. The finish is off-dry and exceptionally smooth, with no hop burn.
Mouthfeel.Medium-full, velvety body with a soft, pillowy texture. Moderate carbonation provides a gentle lift, while a subtle, well-integrated alcohol warmth emerges on the finish.
