Stigbergets Bryggeri VÅT KATT
This vibrant Double IPA, a collaboration between Stigbergets and O/O Brewing, showcases the essence of fresh-harvest brewing through its limited wet-hopped profile. It pours a luminous gold with a soft, persistent haze and a frothy white head. The aroma is an intense bouquet of resinous pine and crushed citrus, deepened by the uniquely green, chlorophyll-forward scent of undried hop blossoms. On the palate, a clean, grainy malt backbone supports a firm bitterness and layered flavors of grapefruit and tropical fruit. The finish is remarkably dry and crisp, leaving a lingering resinous trail and a smooth, well-integrated alcohol warmth.
Appearance. Deep gold to light orange (7-9 SRM); moderate-sized, persistent white head with fine lacing; slight to moderate haze typical of modern hop-forward styles.
Aroma. High to intense hop aroma featuring fresh-cut grass, floral spice, and resinous pine from the wet hops; citrus notes of grapefruit and light tropical fruit in the background; clean, neutral, grainy malt; low esters and a faint, clean alcohol presence.
Taste. Initial hop-forward impression of fresh greenery and citrus zest; malt flavor is low and neutral, providing a soft, grainy support without sweetness. Hop bitterness is high and firm but lacks harshness. Finish is dry to medium-dry with a long, lingering hoppy, resinous aftertaste. Subtle, clean alcohol flavor is present.
Mouthfeel. Medium body with a smooth, soft texture; medium-high carbonation; noticeable but restrained alcohol warmth that remains smooth; no harsh hop-derived astringency.
