Imperial IPA 9 º 70 IBU

SirHopper

This Double IPA is a powerful showcase of modern hop technology, utilizing Hopsteiner Salvo extract to deliver a concentrated blast of sensory intensity. It pours a brilliant golden hue, immediately releasing a high-intensity bouquet of zesty citrus, sticky pine resin, and assorted tropical fruits. Despite its 9% ABV, the beer maintains a surprisingly lean profile with a low body that enhances its high drinkability. The malt remains a clean, neutral backdrop, allowing the firm hop bitterness to dominate without becoming harsh. A dry finish ensures the complex fruit and resin notes linger pleasantly, making for a potent yet refined West Coast-style experience.

Appearance. Gold (7 SRM). Brilliant clarity. Moderate-sized, persistent white head with fine lacing.

Aroma. High intensity hop aroma featuring prominent grapefruit citrus, floral notes, and a deep evergreen resin. Very low, clean, neutral grainy maltiness in the background. Clean fermentation profile with a subtle, well-integrated alcohol note.

Taste. Initial impression is a sharp punch of citrus peel and pine needles. Hop flavor is strong and complex, echoing the aroma with layers of tropical fruit and resin. Bitterness is very high but smooth, lacking harshness. Low, unobtrusive malt support. Finishes very dry and clean with a long, bitter, hoppy aftertaste.

Mouthfeel. Medium-light body with a smooth texture. Moderate carbonation. Noticeable but restrained, smooth alcohol warmth. No hop-derived astringency.
