La Cumbre Brewing Company Elevated IPA
Elevated IPA presents a masterclass in the American IPA style, delivering an intense and vibrant sensory experience. The profile is dominated by high-intensity hop aromas featuring bright citrus zest, pungent pine resin, and hints of tropical fruit. A restrained, clean malt backbone of pale grains and a touch of light caramel provides a slender platform for the aggressive bitterness to shine. The fermentation is exceptionally clean, ensuring the hop character remains the focal point from the initial aromatic burst to the crisp, lingeringly bitter finish. It is a quintessential representation of the style, balancing punchy hop flavors with a refreshing, dry drinkability.
Appearance. Medium gold to bright copper (SRM 7-10). Brilliant clarity with a dense, persistent off-white head that leaves significant lacing on the glass.
Aroma. High intensity hop aroma featuring prominent notes of grapefruit peel, pine needles, and a dank, resinous quality. Low, clean, grainy malt sweetness is detectable in the background. Esters are very low and clean.
Taste. Assertive hop-forward flavor mirroring the aroma with layers of citrus and resin. The bitterness is high but remains clean and never harsh. Low toasted malt and light caramel flavors offer a subtle counterpoint. Finishes dry with a long, resinous, and hoppy aftertaste.
Mouthfeel. Medium body with a smooth, slightly oily texture from hop oils. Medium-high carbonation provides a crisp bite. A very light, well-integrated alcohol warmth is present.
