Imperial IPA 7.8 º

Freak Folk Bier

This Double IPA delivers an intense sensory experience dominated by the punchy, tropical character of Citra and Citra Cryo hops. Waves of pink grapefruit, ripe mango, and lychee define the aroma and flavor, supported by a soft, pillowy foundation of American barley, wheat, and oats. These grains provide a smooth, creamy texture that tames the assertive hop bitterness. The finish is notably dry and clean, characteristic of the style, allowing the resinous hop oils to linger without being heavy. At 7.8% ABV, the alcohol is well-integrated, providing just a touch of warmth to this bright, fruit-forward modern hop showcase.

Appearance. Pale gold (6 SRM) with a slight, protein-induced haze. Features a moderate-sized, persistent white head that leaves consistent lacing on the glass.

Aroma. High intensity hop aroma featuring prominent notes of grapefruit, lime zest, and passion fruit from the Citra and Citra Cryo additions. Background notes of neutral, grainy malt with a soft, bready wheat character. Fermentation is clean with very low fruity esters.

Taste. Strong, saturated hop flavors of tangerine and tropical fruit lead into a moderately high bitterness that remains smooth rather than harsh. The malt profile is low and supportive, offering a clean, soft bready flavor from the wheat and oats. The finish is dry to medium-dry with a lingering citrusy and resinous aftertaste.

Mouthfeel. Medium body with a notably smooth, creamy texture due to the oat and wheat content. Carbonation is medium-high. Restrained, smooth alcohol warmth is present but integrated. No hop-derived astringency.
