Soma Citra Drip
Imperial IPA 8 º
This Double IPA showcases an intense saturation of Citra hops, delivering a punchy sensory experience defined by bright citrus and lush tropical fruit. At 8% ABV, it presents a formidable yet clean profile where notes of pink grapefruit, tangerine, and lychee dominate the aromatics. The malt backbone remains lean and supportive, providing a soft, cracker-like foundation that allows the hop oils to shine without the weight of a barleywine. A firm, resinous bitterness balances the initial fruit sweetness, leading into a crisp, dry finish that emphasizes drinkability and modern hop intensity.
Appearance. Deep gold to light orange (7-9 SRM). Features a moderate-sized, persistent off-white head with fine lacing. Clarity is good, though a slight, modern hop-induced haze may be present.
Aroma. High intensity hop aroma featuring prominent Citra characteristics: grapefruit, lime zest, and passion fruit. Background malt is neutral and grainy-sweet. Fermentation is clean with very low fruity esters. A subtle, smooth alcohol note is present but well-integrated.
Taste. Powerful hop-forward impact mirroring the aroma with layers of citrus peel and tropical melon. Bitterness is high but smooth, lacking harshness. The malt flavor is low, providing a simple, bready support. The finish is medium-dry and crisp, leaving a lingering resinous and fruity aftertaste.
Mouthfeel. Medium body with a smooth, slightly oily texture from the heavy hopping. Carbonation is medium-high. A restrained, pleasant alcohol warmth is felt, without any astringency.
