Ghost Town’s Mordant is a modern American IPA that masterfully bridges the gap between classic West Coast bitterness and contemporary fruit-forward intensity. Featuring a potent duo of Strata and Mosaic hops, the profile opens with a vivid aromatic punch of sticky cannabis and passion fruit. On the palate, luscious waves of ripe mango and mixed berries unfold against a crisp, clean malt backdrop. This rotating selection maintains a firm, resinous bitterness typical of the style while highlighting the vibrant, juicy characteristics of its specific hop varieties. It concludes with a refreshing, dry finish that emphasizes its clean fermentation and hop-forward balance.
Appearance.Brilliant medium gold (approx 7 SRM) with a thick, frothy white head that exhibits excellent persistence and leaves intricate lacing as it recedes.
Aroma.High intensity hop-forward bouquet; prominent notes of dank resin and crushed berries from the Strata hops merge with Mosaic's signature tropical mango and earthy blueberry. Low, clean, bready malt sweetness provides a neutral foundation.
Taste.Initial hop impact is citrusy and tropical, dominated by passion fruit and ripe stone fruit flavors. The mid-palate reveals a firm, medium-high bitterness that is clean and lacks harshness, supported by a low, grainy malt character. The finish is decidedly dry and crisp with a lingering resinous and berry-like aftertaste.
Mouthfeel.Medium-light body with a smooth, slightly oily texture from hop resins. Carbonation is medium-high, providing a lively, scrubbing prickle. Very subtle, smooth alcohol warmth is well-integrated.
