Hornbeer Hophorn
This assertive Double IPA bridges the gap between intense hop character and the deep complexity of dark malts. Poured a deep walnut brown with a persistent beige head, it offers a high-intensity sensory experience driven by 135 IBUs. A robust grain bill featuring Crystal malt provides a foundational caramel sweetness, while Chocolate malt and roasted barley introduce sophisticated notes of cocoa and toasted grain typically found in stouts. Dry-hopped with four distinct varieties, the beer delivers prominent resinous and citrus aromas that balance its 9.3% strength. The result is a full-bodied, multifaceted ale where aggressive bitterness meets a rich, lingering malty finish.
Appearance. Deep walnut brown to dark mahogany; persistent beige foam with good retention and lacing; unfiltered with a slight haze and potential sediment.
Aroma. High intensity hop aroma featuring resinous pine, citrus, and floral notes from four hop varieties; supportive malt character of caramel, light chocolate, and subtle roasted grain; clean fermentation profile with a soft, noticeable alcohol presence.
Taste. Strong, complex hop flavors of citrus and resin; very high bitterness that is firm but not harsh; mid-palate brings caramel sweetness from Crystal malt and toasted notes from Chocolate malt and roasted barley; finishes medium-dry with a long, lingering hoppy bitterness.
Mouthfeel. Medium-full body with a smooth, creamy texture; moderate carbonation; noticeable and well-integrated alcohol warmth; no significant hop-derived astringency.
