Blur is an expressive Double IPA that showcases a saturated hop profile driven by heavy additions of Mosaic and Citra. The sensory experience opens with an intense bouquet of ripe mango, pink grapefruit, and passion fruit, accented by the delicate apricot and melon notes characteristic of Meridian and Summer hops. Beneath this tropical layering, a soft, wheaty malt base provides a neutral canvas, ensuring the complex hop oils remain the primary focus. The palate is defined by its plush, hazy texture and a controlled, firm bitterness that balances the 8.5% ABV. It finishes with a lingering, resinous fruitiness and a clean, warming glow.
Appearance.Deep gold to light orange; opaque haze with a moderate-sized, persistent, off-white head that leaves thick lacing on the glass.
Aroma.Prominent to intense hop aroma featuring layers of mango, tangerine, and passion fruit with subtle berry and melon notes. Malt is low and neutral-grainy; fermentation is clean with a faint, smooth alcohol presence.
Taste.Strong and complex hop flavors of citrus zest, blueberry, and stone fruit. Moderately high bitterness that remains smooth and devoid of harshness. Malt character is unobtrusive and soft, providing a supportive background for a medium-dry finish with a lingering hoppy aftertaste.
Mouthfeel.Medium-full body with a smooth, creamy texture and no hop-derived astringency. Medium carbonation provides lift, accompanied by a restrained and well-integrated alcohol warmth.
