English IPA 5.5 º

Half Moon Brewery

Half Moon Brewery Lunar is a refreshing English IPA that captures the essence of a classic golden ale with a modernized hop intensity. It opens with an aromatically charged floral bouquet, supported by a backbone of bready malt and subtle hints of caramel. On the palate, a fine malt sweetness provides a brief foundation before a firm, assertive bitterness takes hold. The finish is characterized by a lingering floral hop aftertaste and a clean, medium-dry sensation. At 5.5% ABV, it strikes a sophisticated balance between traditional British structure and a vibrant, hop-forward profile that remains highly drinkable.

Appearance. Deep golden (8 SRM) with brilliant clarity. Pours with a moderate-sized, persistent off-white head that leaves delicate lacing on the glass.

Aroma. Moderate-high intensity hop aroma featuring distinct floral and slightly spicy-peppery notes. Supported by a medium-low malt presence of fresh bread and light, sweet caramel. Low fruity esters are present.

Taste. Initial impression of bready malt quickly transitions to a high hop flavor dominated by floral and citrus-orange notes. Moderate to assertive hop bitterness provides a firm structure. The malt offers light caramel and toffee support. Finishes medium-dry with a lingering floral bitterness.

Mouthfeel. Medium body with a smooth texture. Medium-high carbonation provides a crisp, refreshing sensation. Very low, well-integrated alcohol warmth is barely perceptible.
