This collaborative Double IPA delivers a vibrant sensory experience, characterized by its luminous, hazy appearance. The aromatic profile is dominated by the specific contributions of Mosaic and Motueka hops, presenting a complex interplay of ripe blueberry and zesty lemon-lime. On the palate, the hop intensity is high but smooth, supported by a subtle, grainy malt backbone that allows the tropical and citrus nuances to shine. Despite its 8.2% strength, the beer maintains high drinkability with a soft mouthfeel and a clean, lingering finish. It exemplifies the modern approach to the style, focusing on hop saturation without aggressive harshness.
Appearance.Pale gold to light orange-copper (6-8 SRM). Opaque to very hazy with a moderate-sized, persistent, creamy white head that leaves significant lacing.
Aroma.High intensity. Prominent notes of fresh blueberry and tropical stone fruit from Mosaic, complemented by bright lemon-lime zest and a hint of mojito-like spice from Motueka. Background malt is neutral and doughy. Clean fermentation with very low alcohol warmth.
Taste.Initial impression is a burst of tropical fruit and citrus. Malt flavor is low, providing a soft, bready support. Hop bitterness is moderately high but smooth, avoiding harshness. Flavors of blueberry, crushed lime, and melon lead to a medium-dry finish with a lingering fruity aftertaste.
Mouthfeel.Medium-full body with a soft, pillowy texture. Moderate carbonation. Noticeable but well-integrated alcohol warmth. Low hop-derived astringency.
