Imperial IPA 7.8 º

Funky Fluid

This Double IPA delivers an intense, modern sensory experience, defined by its massive 20 g/L dry-hopping rate. The aromatic profile is saturated with the specific contributions of Sultana and Sabro, yielding punchy notes of ripe pineapple and creamy coconut. These are layered over a complex foundation of tropical fruit, berry, and citrus provided by the Mosaic and Citra additions. Fermented with Coastal Haze yeast, the beer exhibits a soft, esters-forward character that complements the saturated hop oils. Despite its 7.8% ABV, the palate remains vibrant with a firm bitterness that balances a smooth, velvety texture and a lingering, fruit-driven finish.

Appearance. Deep gold to light orange; hazy to opaque with a moderate-sized, persistent, creamy white head that leaves significant lacing.

Aroma. Intense hop aroma featuring pineapple, coconut, grapefruit, and tropical berry. Low grainy-sweet malt in the background with moderate fruity esters and a clean, soft alcohol presence.

Taste. Strong and complex hop flavors of tropical fruit, lime, and stone fruit. Moderately high bitterness that is firm but smooth. Soft, supportive, neutral malt character provides a lean backbone. The finish is medium-dry with a lingering hoppy aftertaste and no harshness.

Mouthfeel. Medium-full body with a smooth, creamy texture and moderate carbonation. Noticeable but restrained alcohol warmth is smooth rather than solventy. No hop-derived astringency.
