Lost Baggage is a masterclass in the San Diego-style American IPA, showcasing a collaboration between Sori Brewing and Jeff Bagby. This uncompromising West Coast IPA pours with a brilliant clarity and a firm, resinous hop profile that leads with intense notes of grapefruit zest, pine needles, and a touch of tropical citrus. The aromatic profile is underpinned by a clean, minimalist malt backbone, ensuring the 90 IBUs of bitterness take center stage. On the palate, it delivers a sharp, assertive bitterness and a bone-dry finish that invites the next sip. Its high attenuation and vibrant carbonation emphasize its classic Californian roots, offering a refreshing yet punchy sensory experience.
Appearance.Medium gold with brilliant clarity. Features a persistent, medium-sized white head that leaves significant lacing on the glass.
Aroma.High intensity hop aroma dominated by citrus peel, resinous pine, and subtle floral notes. A low, clean, grainy maltiness provides a neutral background with a very clean fermentation profile.
Taste.The initial impression is one of intense hop bitterness and citrus flavor. Malt remains low with a neutral, slightly crackery character. Hop flavors of grapefruit and resin are prominent, supported by a very high bitterness that is sharp but not harsh. The finish is bone-dry and crisp, with a long, lingering hoppy aftertaste.
Mouthfeel.Medium-light body with a smooth, crisp texture. Medium-high carbonation provides a refreshing bite. A very light, well-integrated alcohol warmth is present.
