Soma Landscape presents a vivid sensory portrait of the modern American IPA, utilizing a complex grain bill of wheat and oat flakes to establish a soft, velvety canvas. The aroma is led by an intense burst of tropical fruit and citrus, driven by the prominent use of Citra and Galaxy hops. These deliver layers of ripe passionfruit, juicy peach, and zesty grapefruit, while a late dry-hop addition of Enigma introduces nuanced notes of redcurrant and white grape. On the palate, a firm but integrated bitterness balances the light, bready malt sweetness, leading into a crisp, refreshing finish that emphasizes the expressive, fruit-forward hop character.
