FrauGruber Brewing

FrauGruber Brewing Strata Buster is a vibrant Hazy IPA that showcases the multifaceted Strata hop. It pours with a luminous, opaque glow, releasing an intense bouquet of passion fruit and zesty pink grapefruit. The sensory experience is anchored by a characteristic dank, resinous undertone that balances the lush tropicality. A soft, pillowy malt base provides a neutral, bready canvas that allows the complex hop oils to take center stage. On the palate, waves of ripe mango and citrus zest transition into a smooth, rounded finish with restrained bitterness. This beer epitomizes the juicy, effortless drinkability expected from a modern, hop-forward profile.

Appearance. Deep straw to golden-orange with a thick, opaque haze that adds a luminous shine. Features a dense, meringue-like white head with excellent retention and persistent lacing.

Aroma. High intensity hop aroma dominated by passion fruit, pink grapefruit, and a distinct dank, resinous quality. Background notes of mango and sweet citrus are supported by a clean, lightly bready malt character with no caramel or toast presence.

Taste. Explosive fruity hop flavor featuring ripe passion fruit and citrus zest, complemented by a subtle herbal dankness typical of the variety. The malt provides a neutral, bready foundation. Perceived bitterness is moderate and smooth, never sharp or harsh. The finish is soft and off-dry with a lingering tropical fruit aftertaste.

Mouthfeel. Medium-full body with a soft, pillowy texture and smooth mouthfeel. Carbonation is moderate. Displays a very light, well-integrated alcohol warmth without any astringency or raw starchiness.
