Icarus Brewing From Far Away
Imperial IPA 10.6 º
This North East Style Triple India Pale Ale delivers an explosive sensory experience driven by a complex grain bill of Golden Promise, English Malted Oats, Spelt, and Red Wheat. An intense dry-hop regimen of Galaxy, Riwaka, and Cryo Citra creates a saturated profile of passion fruit, lime zest, and dank grapefruit. The Helio Glazer yeast enhances the lush, tropical aromatics, while Citra Incognito provides a deep citrus foundation. Despite its strength, it maintains a creamy, pillowy texture and a clean finish, balancing massive hop saturation with a smooth, well-integrated alcohol warmth that avoids any solventy character.
Appearance. Opaque, glowing pale orange to gold (8–10 SRM) with a thick, long-lasting, creamy white head that leaves significant lacing as it recedes.
Aroma. High intensity; dominant notes of passion fruit and peach from Galaxy are joined by the pungent, slightly diesel-flecked lime and grapefruit of Riwaka. Citra adds bright orange peel and mango. Background malt is soft and bready with a clean, fruity fermentation profile.
Taste. Explosive tropical fruit flavors mirror the aroma, featuring pineapple, mango, and citrus oils. A soft, supportive malt backbone from Golden Promise provides a hint of honeyed sweetness before transitioning to a moderately firm but smooth bitterness. The finish is remarkably clean for the gravity, with lingering citrus resin and a hint of white pepper.
Mouthfeel. Full-bodied and viscous with a velvety, creamy texture provided by the high percentage of oats and wheat. Moderate carbonation. Noticeable but smooth alcohol warmth that enhances the hop flavors without being harsh or astringent.
