Spyglass Brewing Company Kung Fu Time Bomb
Imperial IPA 8 º
This collaborative Double IPA explodes with a vibrant, multilayered hop intensity. A foundation of Citra and Citra Incognito delivers bold waves of grapefruit and sweet orange, while Krush adds layers of ripe peach and nectarine. Motueka contributes a distinct lime zest brightness that cuts through the pale malt, as Strata provides a complex backdrop of passionfruit and subtle resinous dankness. The palate is punchy and firm, supported by a lean, neutral malt backbone that allows the concentrated hop oils to shine. It finishes crisp and dry with a lingering tropical bitterness and a smooth, integrated alcohol warmth characteristic of its strength.
Appearance. Gold to light orange with a slight haze. Topped by a moderate-sized, persistent, white head that leaves significant lacing on the glass.
Aroma. Intense hop aroma featuring bright notes of lime, grapefruit, and passionfruit, alongside stone fruit esters of peach and mango. Background malt is low and neutral, presenting a clean, grainy sweetness. A light, clean alcohol note is present but lacks any solvent-like character.
Taste. High hop flavor intensity with layers of citrus zest, tropical fruit, and a hint of resinous pine. Initial impression is punchy with a moderately high bitterness that remains smooth and avoids harshness. Malt character is low and unobtrusive, providing a soft, bready platform. Finishes dry to medium-dry with a lingering bitterness and a clean, fruity aftertaste.
Mouthfeel. Medium body with a smooth, slightly oily texture from the hop concentration. Carbonation is medium-high. A restrained, well-integrated alcohol warmth is noticeable but smooth, with no hop-derived astringency.
