Soma Beer

Soma Solstice is a luminous Hazy IPA that showcases a sophisticated hop trio of Motueka, Nelson Sauvin, and Mosaic. Motueka leads the sensory experience with bright lime zest and mojito-like citrus, while Nelson Sauvin introduces elegant layers of white wine grape and crushed gooseberry. Mosaic rounds out the profile with notes of ripe blueberry and tropical mango. The beer presents a deep straw, opaque appearance under a thick, meringue-like white head. Its soft, pillowy texture carries these intense fruit flavors across a bready, grainy malt base, finishing with a restrained, smooth bitterness that emphasizes juice-like drinkability and modern New World hop complexity.

Appearance. Straw to light gold (4 SRM). Distinctly hazy and nearly opaque with a healthy shine. Topped with a persistent, rocky, white head that leaves intricate lacing on the glass.

Aroma. High intensity hop-forward aroma. Prominent notes of lime and tropical fruit are followed by the characteristic white grape and gooseberry of Nelson Sauvin. Mosaic adds a complex layer of blueberry and stone fruit. The malt background is clean and lightly bready, while fermentation esters are neutral to slightly fruity.

Taste. Initial impressions explode with tropical fruit and citrus. Flavors of lime and mango transition into a sophisticated white wine character. Malt flavor is low, offering a neutral, grainy sweetness that supports the hops. Bitterness is medium-low and well-integrated, masking any harshness. The finish is off-dry and smooth, lingering with notes of grape skin and passionfruit.

Mouthfeel. Medium-full body with a soft, pillowy, and creamy texture. Moderate carbonation provides a gentle lift. Very smooth throughout with no hop harshness or astringency; the alcohol provides a light, well-integrated warmth.
