Moon Moons is a bold Experimental Beer crafted as a Dry Hopped Imperial Pilsner, showcasing a vibrant collision of European and Southern Hemisphere hops. The sensory journey is led by a powerful bouquet of Rakau, Saphir, and Magnum hops, delivering distinct notes of sun-ripened stone fruit, bright citrus, and lush tropical undertones. At 7.5% ABV, the clean, grainy sweetness of the malt provides a sturdy backbone for the assertive hop character without overshadowing its crisp, lager-like finish. This collaboration between First State and Dream State balances potency with refreshment, offering a modern, fruit-forward interpretation of a classic lager profile.
Appearance.Deep gold (6-8 SRM); brilliant clarity; persistent, frothy white head with fine lacing.
Aroma.High hop intensity featuring prominent stone fruit (apricot, peach), citrus zest, and a hint of tropical papaya. A secondary layer of floral and spicy notes persists over a clean, moderately-low grainy-sweet pilsner malt base.
Taste.Initial impression is a clean, grainy malt sweetness followed quickly by a wave of hop flavors, notably lime peel, apricot, and soft tropical fruit. Medium-high bitterness is firm but smooth, leading to a crisp, dry, and slightly lingering hop-forward finish.
Mouthfeel.Medium body with a crisp, refreshing edge. Carbonation is moderately high, providing a lively scrub on the palate. A subtle, well-integrated alcohol warmth is present.
