Imperial IPA 8 º

Omnipollo
Parish Brewing Co.

This Double IPA collaboration between Omnipollo and Parish Brewing Co. captures the essence of a Citra-hopped powerhouse. It radiates an intense, saturated sensory profile dominated by the specific Citra hop variety, delivering punchy layers of tropical mango, ripe pineapple, and zesty grapefruit. The malt remains a clean, supportive backdrop of neutral graininess, allowing the hop resin to shine without the weight of heavy caramel or residual sugar. Despite its 8% strength, the beer maintains high drinkability with a medium-dry finish and a smooth, integrated alcohol warmth. It is a vibrant exploration of modern hop saturation, balancing aggressive bitterness with lush, tropical fruit character.

Appearance. Pours a deep gold to light orange-copper with a distinct, characteristic haze. It is topped by a moderate-sized, persistent off-white head that leaves consistent lacing on the glass.

Aroma. High intensity hop aroma featuring prominent notes of grapefruit, tropical pineapple, and mango. A low, clean, grainy malt presence supports the hops, accompanied by a light, fruity fermentation profile and a hint of smooth alcohol without solvent notes.

Taste. Dominant tropical and citrus hop flavors lead the palate, followed by a moderately high bitterness that remains smooth and lacks harshness. The malt character is soft and unobtrusive, providing a neutral grainy base without caramel or toast. It finishes medium-dry with a lingering, resinous hop aftertaste and a clean alcohol flavor.

Mouthfeel. Medium body with a smooth, soft texture and medium-high carbonation. There is no harsh hop-derived astringency, only a restrained and pleasant alcohol warmth that complements the beer’s strength.
