Soma Horizon is a vibrant Double IPA that showcases an intense aromatic tapestry driven by concentrated Strata CGX and Nelson CGX hops. The sensory experience opens with a burst of passion fruit and ripe strawberry from the Strata CGX, seamlessly blending into the distinctive white wine, crushed gooseberry, and diesel notes characteristic of Nelson. A clean, neutral malt base provides a lean foundation, allowing the nuanced hop profile to remain the focus. The palate is defined by a firm bitterness and a dry, resinous finish. Despite its 8% strength, the beer maintains high drinkability with a smooth, well-integrated alcohol presence.
