Imperial IPA 6.2 º

Magic Road

This Double IPA showcases an assertive and pungent hop profile driven by the intensive use of Galaxy and Citra. It opens with an explosion of passion fruit, peach, and sharp grapefruit, supported by a clean, neutral malt base that keeps the sensory focus entirely on the hops. Despite its relatively sessionable ABV for the style, it maintains the characteristic intensity and firm bitterness expected of a Double IPA. The experience concludes with a crisp, dry finish and a lingering resinous and tropical fruit aftertaste, creating a highly aromatic and drinkable ale that highlights modern New World hop character.

Appearance. Deep gold (SRM 7-9) with a moderate-sized, persistent white head and good clarity.

Aroma. Intense hop aroma featuring prominent passion fruit, peach, and pineapple from Galaxy, alongside grapefruit and lime notes from Citra. A low, clean, neutral maltiness provides a quiet background, while the fermentation profile remains clean with only a hint of fruity esters.

Taste. An explosion of tropical and citrus flavors dominated by Galaxy and Citra, showcasing layers of passion fruit, melon, and grapefruit. The malt character is soft and unobtrusive, providing just enough support to prevent harshness. Bitterness is moderately high but clean, leading into a dry, crisp finish with a lingering hoppy aftertaste.

Mouthfeel. Medium-light body with a smooth texture and medium-high carbonation. Alcohol warmth is restrained and smooth, with no harsh hop-derived astringency.
