This Specialty IPA offers a bright and refreshing departure from the style's darker variants, presenting a blonde appearance that belies its substantial 6.8% ABV. The sensory profile is defined by an assertive hop character, prominently featuring vibrant aromas and flavors of fresh citrus and orange. This citrus-forward intensity is balanced by the distinct, peppery spice of rye malt, which provides a crisp, grainy backbone and a unique textural silkiness. The finish is notably dry and quite bitter, emphasizing the clean, lupulin-driven character while allowing the spicy rye notes to linger alongside a pithy orange zest aftertaste.
Appearance.Deep blonde to golden in color (6–8 SRM). Topped with a brilliant white, frothy head that exhibits excellent retention and leaves thick lacing on the glass. Crystal clear with no significant haze.
Aroma.High hop intensity characterized by concentrated orange peel, tangerine, and grapefruit zest. Supported by a moderate spicy, peppery rye malt presence and a low, bready malt sweetness. Clean fermentation profile with no discernible esters or phenols.
Taste.Initial impression is a sharp, clean bitterness followed by dominant hop flavors of sweet orange and bitter citrus pith. The mid-palate introduces a spicy, slightly earthy rye graininess that adds complexity to the lean malt bill. The bitterness is firm and high but lacks harshness. Finishes very dry and crisp with a lingering citrus and spicy grain aftertaste.
Mouthfeel.Medium body with a slight creamy slickness characteristic of rye. Moderate to high carbonation provides a refreshing prickle. Noticeable but well-integrated alcohol warmth that enhances the dry finish without being hot.
