Burst is a vibrant American IPA that exemplifies Fox Farm Brewery's signature precision and clarity of flavor. This 7% expression leads with an intense aromatic profile of sun-ripened pineapple and lush mango, underpinned by a sharp, zesty tangerine brightness. The hop intensity is significant yet balanced by a clean, lean malt backbone that allows the tropical character to dominate without cloying sweetness. On the palate, a firm but polished bitterness provides structure, leading into a crisp, dry finish. It is a modern interpretation that emphasizes fruit-forward hop saturation while maintaining the high drinkability and refreshing snap expected of the style.
Appearance.Pours a brilliant deep gold with exceptional clarity and a thick, frothy white head that exhibits excellent persistence and leaves intricate lacing.
Aroma.High intensity hop aromatics featuring prominent notes of tropical fruit—specifically juicy pineapple and mango—accompanied by a sharp citrus zest reminiscent of tangerine. Low, clean, grainy malt sweetness supports the fruit without adding caramel or toast.
Taste.Initial impression is a burst of tropical fruit flavors that mirror the aroma. High hop bitterness is firm and clean, never harsh. A light, grainy malt character provides a subtle platform. The fermentation is neutral, and the beer finishes very dry with a lingering citrus and resinous hop aftertaste.
Mouthfeel.Medium body with a smooth, slightly creamy texture. Carbonation is medium-high, providing a lively prickle. A very light, well-integrated alcohol warmth is present but subtle.
