Imperial IPA 8 º

Gekko Brewing Company

This Double IPA presents an intense, modern sensory profile driven by a collaboration with aroma specialists. The use of Nectaron and Citrulicious delivers a saturated wave of tropical nectar and bright citrus zest, while Hopburst Magnifico and Hopgain Floe add a nuanced dankness and floral depth. Despite its 8% ABV, the beer remains exceptionally smooth and clean, eschewing the vegetal harshness often found in heavily dry-hopped ales. A lean malt backbone supports the massive hop impact, resulting in a vibrant, fruit-forward experience that highlights the cutting-edge extraction techniques behind its layered aroma and flavor.

Appearance. Pours a deep gold to light orange with a moderate-sized, persistent off-white head that leaves consistent lacing. Exhibits good clarity with only a very slight, modern hop-oil-derived haze.

Aroma. High intensity hop aroma dominated by tropical fruit notes of mango and pineapple, alongside bright citrus zest and a complex, resinous dankness. The malt character is neutral and clean, providing a faint grainy sweetness in the background with no solventy alcohol.

Taste. Leading with a punch of tropical stone fruit and tangerine citrus. The hop flavor is layered and complex, featuring a distinct resinous depth without any vegetal harshness. Malt flavors are low and unobtrusive, resembling clean cracker or white bread. Finishes medium-dry with a firm, smooth bitterness and a lingering fruit-skin aftertaste.

Mouthfeel. Medium body with a notable silky-smooth texture. Carbonation is medium-high, providing a crispness that balances the hop oils. Features a restrained, well-integrated alcohol warmth and zero astringency.
