Icarus Brewing

This Hazy IPA pours with a vibrant, opaque glow, broadcasting an explosive bouquet of stone fruit and tropical saturation. Triple dry-hopped with a focus on Nectaron, the sensory profile is dominated by ripe peach and nectarine, supported by pineapple notes from El Dorado and bright citrus bursts from Amarillo. Lupulin Mosaic contributes underlying layers of mango and mixed berries, while Azacca and Columbus add depth with subtle hints of resinous pine. The substantial use of wheat and oats creates a velvety, pillowy canvas for these intense hop flavors. It finishes with a soft, restrained bitterness, leaving a lingering impression of passion fruit and sun-ripened orchard fruit.

Appearance. Deep gold to pale orange (5-6 SRM) with a dense, opaque haze. Produces a thick, meringue-like white head with exceptional retention and heavy lacing.

Aroma. High intensity hop-forward aroma. Dominated by Nectaron-driven peach, apricot, and passion fruit. Secondary notes of pineapple, tangerine, and a hint of dank earthiness. Malt character is low but present as doughy, bready wheat and flaked oats.

Taste. Massive initial impression of tropical fruit nectar. Bold flavors of ripe stone fruit and mango from Nectaron and Mosaic, followed by citrus zest from Amarillo. Malt provides a soft, grainy, and bready backbone that balances the high hop load. Perceived bitterness is low to moderate, well-masked by the dense body. The finish is juicy and off-dry with a lingering berry and peach aftertaste.

Mouthfeel. Medium-full body with a soft, creamy, and pillowy texture derived from the heavy oat and wheat grist. Carbonation is moderate. A gentle, well-integrated alcohol warmth is present without any harshness or hop burn.
