Wind Chimes is a vibrant American Pale Ale that highlights a modern, hop-forward profile through a double dry-hopped lens. The sensory experience is led by an intense bouquet of citrus zest, resinous pine, and tropical stone fruit, driven by a complex blend of Citra, Chinook, Idaho 7, and ADHA 218. A lean, extra pale malt base provides a crisp, crackery foundation that allows the hop oils to take center stage. Citra provides bright grapefruit notes, while Chinook adds a classic evergreen snap. Idaho 7 contributes nuanced black tea and apricot, supported by the unique berry-like character of ADHA 218, finishing refreshingly dry and clean.
Appearance.Pale golden color (5–6 SRM) with a moderately large, bright white head featuring excellent retention and fine lacing. Generally clear, though the double dry-hop process may impart a very slight, luminous haze.
Aroma.High intensity hop aroma dominated by fresh grapefruit, resinous pine, and ripe pineapple. Subtle floral and mixed berry notes emerge as the beer breathes. The malt aroma is low, providing a neutral, grainy, and slightly bready backdrop. Clean fermentation profile with no significant yeast-derived esters.
Taste.Initial impression is vibrantly hoppy with flavors of tangerine and mango transitioning into a firm, piney bitterness. The malt profile is supportive but restrained, offering light crackery notes without caramel sweetness. Bitterness is moderate-high, well-balanced by the saturated late-addition hop flavors. The finish is dry and crisp, with a lingering citrus and resinous aftertaste.
Mouthfeel.Medium-light body with moderate to high carbonation that enhances the crisp, refreshing character. Overall smooth finish without any hop-derived astringency or harshness. Alcohol warmth is negligible at this ABV.
