This formidable Double IPA showcases a saturated hop profile driven by the synergy of Mosaic, Citra, and Krush varieties. It offers an intense olfactory experience of overripe mango, pink grapefruit, and resinous pine. On the palate, the hop intensity is amplified by a clean, neutral malt backbone that allows the punchy notes of guava and passion fruit to shine. Despite its 10.4% ABV, the beer maintains high drinkability with a dry, resinous finish and a firm bitterness. It balances tropical decadence with a classic resinous snap, making for a potent yet refined sensory journey through modern hop complexity.
Appearance.Deep gold to light orange-copper with slight haze. Features a moderate-sized, persistent, off-white head that leaves significant lacing on the glass.
Aroma.Intense hop aroma with dominant notes of tropical fruit (mango, passion fruit), citrus (grapefruit peel), and resinous pine. Subtle berry and stone fruit esters are present, supported by a low, neutral, grainy malt background and a soft, clean alcohol note.
Taste.Strong and complex hop flavors of mango, lime, and peach. Bitterness is moderately high and firm but lacks harshness. Supportive, clean malt character is soft and unobtrusive. The finish is dry to medium-dry with a lingering hoppy aftertaste of citrus oils and resin.
Mouthfeel.Medium body with a smooth, velvety texture. Carbonation is medium-high. A noticeable but well-integrated, smooth alcohol warmth is present without being solventy. No hop-derived astringency.
