American IPA 6.5 º

PINTA

PINTA Wave Maker is a contemporary West Coast IPA that emphasizes a lean, bright character without sacrificing impact. It pours with remarkable clarity, leading with a bold, resinous, and citrus-forward hop intensity characteristic of modern American cultivars. The aromatic profile is sharp and clean, supported by a minimalistic malt base that provides a subtle, crackery sweetness. On the palate, a crisp, very dry finish highlights a firm bitterness that remains smooth rather than harsh. This American IPA exemplifies the evolution of the style, balancing high drinkability with a robust strength, resulting in a refreshing yet punchy sensory experience.

Appearance. Light gold to pale amber (6-8 SRM). Brilliant clarity with a medium-sized, persistent white head that leaves fine lacing.

Aroma. High intensity hop aroma featuring prominent notes of grapefruit zest, resinous pine, and a hint of tropical fruit. Very low, clean, grainy maltiness provides a neutral background. Fermentation profile is clean with no significant esters.

Taste. High hop flavor of citrus peel and pine. Malt presence is low and supportive, offering a clean, bready backbone. Bitterness is firm and medium-high, providing a sharp but clean edge. The finish is extremely dry and crisp, leaving a lingering hoppy and bitter aftertaste with no harshness.

Mouthfeel. Medium-light body with a crisp, smooth texture. Carbonation is medium-high, enhancing the dry finish. Very light, well-integrated alcohol warmth is present but subtle.
