This vibrant American IPA delivers an expressive sensory experience led by a distinctive Southern Hemisphere and American hop blend. The use of Moutere and Motueka hops provides a bright burst of lime and tropical fruit, while Pacifica and Amarillo contribute layers of orange citrus and delicate floral undertones. Despite its hazy appearance, the beer maintains the clean fermentation profile expected of the style. The malt base remains unobtrusive, allowing the complex interplay of pineapple, grapefruit, and stone fruit to take center stage. Refreshing and hop-forward, it balances a moderate bitterness with a crisp, inviting finish that defines a modern summer ale.
Appearance.Medium gold color with a deliberate, uniform haze. Topped with a medium-sized, persistent white head that leaves moderate lacing on the glass.
Aroma.High intensity hop aroma featuring pronounced lime and lemon zest, complemented by tropical notes of passionfruit and crushed pineapple. Subtle orange blossom and spicy floral hints are present, supported by a low, clean, grainy malt sweetness and a neutral fermentation profile.
Taste.Initial flavors of lime, grapefruit, and tropical fruit dominate the palate. The bitterness is medium-high but remains smooth and integrated rather than harsh. The malt character is light and crackery, providing a subtle backbone that allows the hop flavors to shine. The finish is dry to medium-dry with a lingering citrus and floral aftertaste.
Mouthfeel.Medium-light body with a smooth, soft texture. Carbonation is medium-high, providing a lively and refreshing mouthfeel. No astringency or significant alcohol warmth is present.
