American IPA 7.1 º

Paperback Brewing Company

This American IPA channels the classic West Coast spirit with an assertive and focused hop delivery. A bright, clean malt backbone allows vibrant notes of grapefruit peel, resinous pine, and subtle tropical undertones to take center stage. The sensory experience is defined by its crisp clarity and a firm, bracing bitterness that lingers pleasantly on the palate. Its medium body and high attenuation result in a refreshing, dry finish that emphasizes citrus zest and a touch of floral spice. At 7.1% ABV, it provides a lean but powerful expression of New World hops, embodying a balanced yet uncompromisingly bitter profile.

Appearance. Deep gold to light amber (approx. 7–9 SRM) with brilliant clarity. Pours with a medium-sized, persistent white head that leaves significant lacing on the glass.

Aroma. High intensity hop aroma featuring prominent notes of grapefruit, dank resin, and pine needles. Supported by a low, clean, grainy malt character with a hint of toasted bread. Fermentation is clean with very subtle pear esters and no detectable diacetyl.

Taste. Initial impression is an explosion of citrus and pine resin hop flavors. The malt is supportive but restrained, offering light crackers and a touch of caramel sweetness. Bitterness is firm and high, carrying through to a very dry, clean finish. The aftertaste is hoppy and crisp with lingering pithy notes.

Mouthfeel. Medium body with a smooth, slightly oily texture from hop resins. Carbonation is medium-high, providing a lively scrub. A light, smooth alcohol warmth is present but well-integrated.
