Howling Hops Flipside
American Pale Ale 5.2 º
Flipside is a vibrant and contemporary American Pale Ale that leans into the tropical and vinous character of its modern hop profile. A heavy double-dry-hop addition of Nelson Sauvin provides a distinctive tangy white grape and gooseberry acidity, while Citra contributes sharp, zesty citrus notes of grapefruit and lime. These are softened by the sweet, sun-ripened peach flavors derived from Amarillo. Despite its hazy, extra pale appearance, the beer remains a balanced crusher with a lean, grainy malt base that supports the fruit-forward intensity. The result is a bright, refreshing experience where New World hop expression takes center stage against a crisp, clean finish.
Appearance. Very pale straw to light gold (4-6 SRM). It presents with a persistent, frothy white head and notable haziness, departing from traditional clarity for a modern, unfiltered look.
Aroma. High intensity hop aroma featuring distinct notes of crushed white grapes, passion fruit, and sharp lemon zest. A secondary layer of sweet peach and floral orange blossom is present. The malt is understated, offering only a low, neutral graininess.
Taste. The palate leads with an immediate burst of tangy white grape and citrus oil. Mid-palate flavors of peach and apricot emerge, supported by a very low, cracker-like malt presence. Bitterness is moderate and well-integrated, never becoming harsh. The finish is medium-dry with lingering notes of grapefruit peel and tropical fruit.
Mouthfeel. Medium-light body with a soft, slightly creamy texture likely due to the hazy presentation. Carbonation is moderate to high, providing a refreshing prickle on the tongue. Alcohol warmth is very low and well-hidden.
