Imperial IPA 10 º

Soma Beer

Soma Lighttning is a powerful Double IPA that showcases an intense aromatic tapestry driven by Simcoe Cryo, Amarillo Cryo, HBC 630, Idaho 7 Cryo, and Citra hops. This Triple IPA iteration pours a deep gold with a persistent white head, releasing a saturated bouquet of ripe raspberry, stone fruit, and pungent tropical citrus. On the palate, vibrant layers of peach and papaya meet a resinous pine backbone. Despite its formidable strength, it maintains a clean, dryish finish with a firm but smooth bitterness that balances the soft, grainy malt sweetness. It is a complex, hop-forward tribute to the brewery's legacy.

Appearance. Deep gold to light orange-copper (7-9 SRM) with a slight haze typical of heavily hopped styles. Topped by a dense, persistent, off-white head that leaves thick, soapy lacing.

Aroma. Intense hop-forward profile featuring complex notes of mango, lime, and apricot from Citra and Idaho 7, complemented by a distinct berry-like sweetness from HBC 630. Subtle floral and piney accents from Simcoe and Amarillo provide depth over a neutral, grainy malt base.

Taste. High hop flavor intensity mirroring the aroma with bold tropical fruit and citrus peel. A firm, assertive bitterness is present but remains smooth, balanced by a subtle, clean malt presence. The finish is dry to medium-dry, showcasing lingering notes of grapefruit and resin without harshness.

Mouthfeel. Medium-full body with a smooth, velvety texture. Moderate carbonation provides a gentle lift, accompanied by a noticeable but well-integrated alcohol warmth that reflects its strength.
