This Hazy IPA presents an intense sensory profile driven by a trio of powerhouse hops. Citra leads with vibrant notes of grapefruit and lime zest, while Galaxy contributes a lush, tropical depth of passionfruit and sun-ripened peach. The addition of Dolcita hops adds a unique, candy-like sweetness and subtle berry-forward nuances. Together, they create a juicy character that dominates the palate. A base of flaked grains provides a soft, pillowy texture that carries these hop oils smoothly, finishing with a restrained bitterness and a lingering, fruit-saturated aftertaste that remains remarkably approachable and refreshing at its sessionable strength.
