This American IPA showcases a vibrant modern hop profile driven by Strata and Krush varieties. It pours with inviting clarity and a persistent white head. The sensory experience is led by an expressive bouquet of ripe strawberry and juicy peach, courtesy of the Strata hops, while Krush provides a firm backing of resinous pine and subtle tropical depth. A clean, grainy malt base supports the high hop intensity without adding significant sweetness, leading to a crisp, dry finish. The assertive bitterness is well-integrated, providing a classic snap that balances the lush fruit notes, making for a refreshing and aromatically complex ale.
Appearance.Color is deep gold (approx 7 SRM). Features a medium-sized white head with excellent persistence and moderate lacing. Clarity is clear with a very faint, style-appropriate haze.
Aroma.High intensity hop aroma featuring prominent strawberry and peach stone fruit, supported by a distinct resinous pine note. A low, clean, grainy malt presence provides a neutral backdrop. Fermentation profile is clean with no significant esters.
Taste.Initial impression is hop-forward with intense flavors of peach, strawberry, and tropical fruit. Mid-palate reveals a firm, clean resinous pine character. Bitterness is medium-high and assertive but not harsh. Malt flavor is low and crackery, supporting a dry to medium-dry finish with a lingering hoppy aftertaste.
