Everything Sucks is a vibrant Double IPA that showcases an expressive Southern Hemisphere hop profile through a collaboration between FrauGruber and Superfreunde. The aromatic intensity is driven by Galaxy, Nelson, and Enigma, offering a complex bouquet of passion fruit, crushed white wine grapes, and red berries. On the palate, the Galaxy hops provide a core of tropical peach and citrus, while Nelson contributes distinctive notes of gooseberry and melon. The bitterness is firm yet refined, balancing a lean, neutral malt base that ensures a dry, drinkable finish. Despite the 8.4% ABV, the alcohol is well-integrated, providing a gentle warmth that complements the bold, fruity, and resinous hop character.
Appearance.Deep gold to light orange (7-9 SRM); features a moderate-sized, persistent, off-white head with excellent lacing; slight to moderate haze characteristic of modern interpretations.
Aroma.High intensity hop aroma featuring prominent passion fruit and citrus from Galaxy, coupled with the gooseberry and white wine notes of Nelson. Enigma adds a layer of redcurrant and melon. Malt remains in the background as a neutral, slightly grainy sweetness with a clean fermentation profile and a hint of smooth alcohol.
Taste.Initial impression is a burst of tropical and stone fruit. Strong hop flavors of peach, passion fruit, and crushed grapes dominate. Bitterness is high but smooth, avoiding harshness. The malt character is soft and unobtrusive, providing a clean canvas for the hops. It finishes dry with a lingering hoppy and resinous aftertaste, showcasing the unique berry-like nuances of Enigma.
Mouthfeel.Medium body with a smooth, velvety texture. Carbonation is medium-high, providing a crispness that aids drinkability. A restrained, smooth alcohol warmth is present but well-integrated, with no hop-derived astringency.
