Imperial IPA 8.6 º 80 IBU

Magdalena

Magdalena Muertecita is an assertive Double IPA that commands attention with its intense saturation of modern hops and significant alcoholic strength. Aromas of resinous pine, zesty citrus, and ripe tropical fruit lead the charge, supported by a clean, grainy malt backbone that provides structure without cloying sweetness. The palate is defined by an aggressive yet smooth bitterness that lingers long into the dry finish. Despite its 8.6% ABV, the beer maintains high drinkability, offering a warming glow that complements the complex interplay of hop oils. This is a formidable expression of the style, balancing raw power with modern hop character.

Appearance. Deep gold to light copper (SRM 8-12). It features good clarity and a moderate, persistent off-white head with fine lacing.

Aroma. High intensity hop aroma featuring prominent notes of resinous pine, grapefruit zest, and subtle tropical fruit. A neutral, grainy malt character supports the hops in the background, with a clean fermentation profile and smooth, low alcohol notes.

Taste. Strong and complex hop flavor echoing the citrus and pine aroma. Bitterness is very high but clean, balanced by a light, toasted malt presence. The finish is medium-dry and crisp, leaving a lingering, assertive hoppy aftertaste without harshness.

Mouthfeel. Medium body with a smooth texture and moderate-high carbonation. A noticeable but well-integrated alcohol warmth provides a pleasant glow, and the beer lacks any harsh hop-derived astringency.
