PINTA Crisp Like April is an exceptionally refreshing take on an American IPA, leaning into the lean, snappy profile of a Cold IPA. The hop-forward character is driven by a vibrant blend of Centennial and Amarillo, offering bright layers of grapefruit and orange zest. Simcoe contributes a classic resinous pine backbone, while Vic Secret introduces modern tropical notes of pineapple and passionfruit. The malt base is strikingly clean and grainy, drawing inspiration from a Pilsner to ensure maximum drinkability. It finishes bone-dry with a sharp, lingering bitterness that maintains the beer’s sessionable, crisp character throughout.
