Imperial IPA 7.1 º

Mikkeller

This vibrant Double IPA delivers a concentrated burst of Southeast Asian-inspired flavors, layering sharp lime zest and juicy passionfruit over a base of creamy toasted coconut. The addition of lactose provides a silken backdrop for a bold hop profile, characterized by high-intensity tropical fruit and citrus notes. Mikkeller balances the assertive bitterness typical of a Double IPA with a smooth, velvety texture, creating an exotic sensory profile where the punch of citrus meets the rounded sweetness of tropical stone fruit. It concludes with a clean, lingering bitter finish that keeps the lactose-driven sweetness in check while maintaining a refreshing tropical presence.

Appearance. Gold to light orange-copper (6-10 SRM) with a slight haze from fruit and lactose additions. Topped with a moderate-sized, persistent, white head that leaves significant lacing.

Aroma. High intensity featuring prominent tropical fruit notes of passionfruit and citrusy lime zest. Subtle toasted coconut provides a creamy aromatic layer, supported by a neutral, slightly sweet malt character and a clean fermentation profile.

Taste. Initial impression is a sharp burst of lime and tangy passionfruit, quickly followed by a supportive, clean, soft malt backbone. Moderate to high bitterness provides structure without harshness. The toasted coconut and lactose contribute a smooth mid-palate sweetness that balances the hop-forward profile. Finishes medium-dry with a lingering hoppy and tropical aftertaste.

Mouthfeel. Medium-full body with a smooth, creamy texture enhanced by lactose. Moderate to medium-high carbonation. Low, well-integrated alcohol warmth is present but subtle.
