RationAle Brewing Citrus Hazy IPA
Alcohol Free 0.5 º
This non-alcoholic American IPA presents a vibrant, grapefruit-forward profile designed for effortless sessionability. A heavy pour reveals a distinct haziness that carries high-intensity aromas of fresh citrus zest and pithy grapefruit. The palate is defined by a bright, hop-forward character where the bitter citrus bite of fresh hops cuts through a light, clean malt base of pale grains. Despite its low alcohol content, it maintains the spirit of a classic IPA with a dryish finish and a crisp, refreshing bitterness that lingers pleasantly. It is a sunshine-ready brew that prioritizes bold hop aromatics and a clean, supportive fermentation profile.
Appearance. Medium gold color with a distinct, uniform haze. Topped by a medium-sized, off-white head with good persistence and light lacing.
Aroma. Moderate to high intensity hop aroma dominated by fresh grapefruit, citrus zest, and light floral notes. Low, clean, grainy maltiness provides a subtle background support with no yeast-derived esters.
Taste. Initial impression is hop-forward with intense grapefruit and citrus peel flavors. The malt flavor is low, providing a clean, cracker-like foundation. Bitterness is medium-high and clean, leading to a dry finish with a lingering, slightly pithy hop aftertaste.
Mouthfeel. Medium-light body with a smooth, soft texture. Carbonation is medium-high, enhancing the crispness. No alcohol warmth or harsh astringency is present.
