PINTA

PINTA Nectaron Heroes (2024) is a punchy Double West Coast IPA that celebrates the expressive profile of Nectaron hops. It presents an intense sensory array of ripe passion fruit, juicy peach, and zesty citrus, all underpinned by a lean, grainy malt backbone. This iteration leans into its high-strength heritage while maintaining the classic clarity and dry finish expected of the style. The firm bitterness typical of an American IPA balances the succulent stone fruit notes, while a subtle, clean alcohol warmth enhances the medium-bodied mouthfeel. The result is a vibrant, hop-forward experience with a lingering, resinous, and fruit-drenched aftertaste.

Appearance. Deep gold to pale amber (approximately 7 SRM). Brilliant clarity with a dense, white, persistent head that leaves ornate lacing on the glass.

Aroma. High intensity hop aroma featuring prominent notes of passion fruit, ripe peach, and sharp grapefruit citrus. Low, clean, grainy maltiness provides a neutral backdrop. Fermentation is very clean with no significant esters.

Taste. Initial hop-forward impression of tropical passion fruit and stone fruit peach. A firm, assertive hop bitterness (consistent with high IBU targets) dominates the mid-palate. Low grainy malt flavor supports the hops without adding sweetness. The finish is notably dry and crisp, leading to a lingering resinous and citrusy aftertaste.

Mouthfeel. Medium body with a smooth, slightly oily texture from high hop loading. Moderate to high carbonation provides a refreshing bite. A well-integrated, gentle alcohol warmth is noticeable but lacks any harshness or fusel heat.
