Imperial IPA 8 º

Soma Beer

Soma Wake & Bake is a vibrant Double IPA that expertly balances its 8% strength with high-intensity tropical hop saturated character. Pouring a hazy, glowing gold, the beer delivers an olfactory punch of ripe mango, passion fruit, and citrus zest. The palate follows suit, offering a juicy, complex fruit profile supported by a soft, bready malt backbone and a firm yet smooth bitterness that avoids harshness. The mouthfeel is notably creamy and full, a hallmark of the 'Doble NEIPA' style, with a well-concealed alcohol warmth that enhances the finish. It concludes with a clean, lingering resinous fruitiness and a refreshing, medium-dry snap.

Appearance. Deep gold to light orange (SRM 7-9). Opaque with a heavy, uniform haze. Features a thick, persistent white head with excellent lacing.

Aroma. High intensity hop aroma featuring prominent notes of mango, pineapple, and stone fruit. Subtile citrus zest and resinous pine in the background. Malt character is low and neutral, resembling soft dough. Clean fermentation with low fruity esters.

Taste. Initial impression is an explosion of tropical fruit and citrus. Malt flavor is low, providing a soft, unobtrusive support. Moderately high bitterness that is smooth and rounded on the tongue. Finish is medium-dry with a long, hoppy aftertaste of grapefruit and resin. Alcohol is clean and integrated.

Mouthfeel. Medium-full body with a smooth, creamy texture. Moderate carbonation. Provides a restrained, gentle alcohol warmth without any harsh hop-derived astringency.
