American IPA 6.5 º

Lumberbeard Brewing

This West Coast American IPA showcases a vibrant interplay of Strata and Mosaic hops set against a crisp, pale backdrop. A bouquet of ripe passion fruit, wild strawberry, and zesty tangerine leaps from the glass, supported by nuanced undertones of pine resin and earthy blueberry. The palate is defined by a firm, assertive bitterness that cuts through a lean, cracker-like malt profile, leading to a bone-dry and remarkably clean finish. Its bright clarity and effervescent nature highlight the tropical and citrus complexities, delivering a refreshing yet punchy experience that epitomizes the modern Pacific Northwest interpretation of the style.

Appearance. Deep gold to pale amber (7–9 SRM). Brilliant clarity with a tall, white, persistent head that leaves significant lacing on the glass.

Aroma. High intensity hop aroma dominated by tropical passion fruit and strawberry from the Strata, complemented by Mosaic's signature notes of blueberry, grapefruit, and a hint of resinous pine. Low, grainy, neutral malt sweetness provides a subtle foundation. Fermentation is clean with negligible esters.

Taste. Initial burst of tropical and citrus fruit followed by a sharp, high bitterness. The malt is minimal, offering a light cracker flavor that allows the hops to dominate. Strata brings melon and citrus flavors, while Mosaic contributes berry and dank earthiness. The finish is very dry and crisp with a long-lasting, resinous hop aftertaste.

Mouthfeel. Medium-light body with a smooth, crisp texture. High carbonation enhances the dry finish. Very light, well-integrated alcohol warmth is present but subtle; no astringency.
