Malandar Calla Canalla
Malandar Calla Canalla is a vibrant American IPA that showcases a punchy quartet of classic Pacific Northwest hops. The aromatic profile is led by intense tropical notes of mango and papaya from Citra, underscored by a resinous, forest-floor depth provided by Simcoe. Bright citrus bursts of orange and grapefruit from Amarillo and Centennial dance across the palate, supported by a clean, neutral malt backbone that allows the hop character to remain the protagonist. At 6.5% ABV, it offers a crisp, moderately bitter experience with a lingering pithy finish, balancing modern fruit-forward intensity with the structural integrity of a traditional hop-forward ale.
Appearance. Medium gold to light amber (7-9 SRM). Pours with a persistent, frothy white head that leaves significant lacing. Generally clear, though a very faint hop haze may be present.
Aroma. High intensity aroma dominated by tropical fruits (mango, pineapple) and citrus (grapefruit, orange peel). Distinct notes of pine resin and subtle floral undertones. Low, clean, grainy-sweet maltiness provides a neutral backdrop. Clean fermentation profile.
Taste. Initial impression is hop-forward and bright. Potent flavors of citrus zest and tropical fruit mirror the aroma, followed by a mid-palate of resinous pine. Bitterness is firm and assertive but not harsh. Malt flavor is low and crackery, supporting the hops into a dry, clean finish with a lingering 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 but subtle. No astringency.
