Metalhead

Metalhead Dog Day Sunrise is a vibrant American IPA that captures the essence of the West Coast style. Featuring a double dry-hopped profile of Centennial and Eureka! hops, it delivers a sharp sensory experience defined by resinous pine and zesty grapefruit. The pale base malts provide a clean, supportive backbone that ensures the hop character remains the focus. A balanced bitterness punctuates the finish, while the medium body offers a smooth, refreshing mouthfeel. This beer exemplifies the style's signature clarity and hop-forward intensity, offering a crisp, aromatic journey through citrus groves and evergreen forests with every sip.

Appearance. Medium gold color (8 SRM). Brilliant clarity with a medium-sized, persistent white head that leaves consistent lacing.

Aroma. High intensity hop aroma featuring prominent notes of grapefruit zest, resinous pine, and a subtle herbal spice. Low, clean, grainy maltiness provides a supportive foundation with a clean fermentation profile.

Taste. Initial impression is hop-forward with bold grapefruit and pine flavors. Medium-high bitterness is firm but clean. Low grainy-sweet malt character supports the hops without adding significant sweetness. The finish is dry with a lingering, hoppy aftertaste.

Mouthfeel. Medium body with a smooth, soft texture. Medium-high carbonation. Very light, well-integrated alcohol warmth with no harshness or astringency.
