Red IPA 8.5 º 90 IBU

Santa Sabina

Santa Sabina Derrumbe is a powerful Specialty IPA that commands attention with its deep, dark profile and bold hop expression. At 8.5% ABV, it balances a potent fusion of tropical and resinous hop characters against a sturdy malt base of caramel and toasted grains. The sensory experience is dominated by vibrant tropical fruit notes intertwined with a sharp, piney resin. While visually reminiscent of a darker style, the palate remains firmly hop-forward and remarkably dry. Subtle hints of cocoa and dark toffee support the aggressive bitterness, leading to a warming, clean finish that highlights the complex interplay between fruit-forward hops and gentle roasted undertones.

Appearance. Deep dark brown to opaque black (SRM 35+). Features a thick, persistent tan head with moderate lacing. Generally clear where light penetrates, though often appearing opaque due to its intense color.

Aroma. High intensity hop aroma featuring distinct tropical fruit (mango, passionfruit) and pungent resinous pine. Moderate malt presence offers sweet caramel, light toast, and a subtle hint of dark chocolate. Fermentation is clean with very low alcohol esters.

Taste. Assertive hop flavor mirrors the aroma with layers of resin and tropical fruit. A strong malt backbone provides caramel and subtle bready notes, avoiding heavy roasted acridity or burnt flavors. Bitterness is high and firm, driving a dry to slightly off-dry finish. Lingering aftertaste of pine and light cocoa.

Mouthfeel. Medium-full body with a smooth, velvety texture. Carbonation is moderate. Noticeable but well-integrated alcohol warmth reflects the 8.5% strength. Minimal astringency.
