American IPA 6.5 º 55 IBU

Redneck Brewery

This American IPA delivers a bold sensory experience driven by the aromatic synergy of Simcoe, Ekuanot, and Ahtanum hops. The initial impression is dominated by sharp resinous pine and bright grapefruit, which quickly gives way to complex layers of tropical fruit and a subtle herbal finish. A premium malt base featuring Maris Otter provides a foundational nutty and biscuity richness, while Extra Pale and Dextrine malts contribute to a clean profile and excellent head retention. The result is a vibrant, hop-forward ale that balances its assertive bitterness with a smooth, supporting malt character and a lingering, crisp finish.

Appearance. Deep gold to light amber (SRM 8-10) with brilliant clarity. Pours with a dense, persistent off-white head that leaves significant lacing on the glass.

Aroma. High intensity hop aroma showcasing pungent pine, grapefruit, and tropical melon. Nuances of berry and sage from the Ekuanot are evident, backed by a low, biscuity malt presence from the Maris Otter and a clean fermentation profile.

Taste. The palate is led by a firm, clean bitterness and intense hop flavors of citrus zest, resin, and earthy spice. A light bready and toasted nutty malt flavor provides essential balance without residual sweetness. It finishes medium-dry and crisp with a long-lasting, hoppy aftertaste.

Mouthfeel. Medium body with a smooth, well-rounded texture. Carbonation is medium-high, enhancing the hop bite. There is a light, pleasant alcohol warmth that remains smooth and unobtrusive throughout.
