Szot IPA
This American IPA bridges the gap between coastal styles, delivering a vibrant sensory experience fueled by Mosaic, Ekuanot, Eureka!, and Calypso hops. A punchy aromatic profile leads with ripe mango and bright grapefruit, transitioning into nuanced layers of orange and a distinctive herbal pop of green chili. The inclusion of wheat and oats lends a softened, smooth texture to the medium-bodied frame, while providing a subtle grainy foundation. Assertive bitterness balances the tropical intensity, resulting in a crisp, dry finish. It is a modern expression that emphasizes hop complexity through a clean, fermentation-forward lens.
Appearance. Deep gold (7 SRM). Medium-sized, off-white head with good persistence and light lacing. Generally clear, though a very slight haze is present due to the use of wheat and oats.
Aroma. High intensity hop aroma featuring prominent mango and grapefruit. Secondary notes of orange zest and a distinct herbal, green chili spiciness. Low, clean, grainy maltiness provides a neutral backdrop. Fermentation is clean with no significant esters.
Taste. Initial hop-forward impression of tropical fruit and citrus pith. Medium-high bitterness is firm but clean. Hop flavors of mango and pomelo predominate, followed by a unique spicy-herbal ají verde character. Low grainy malt flavor with a hint of breadiness. Finish is dry to medium-dry with a lingering hoppy aftertaste.
Mouthfeel. Medium body with a smooth, slightly creamy texture. Medium-high carbonation. Noticeable but well-integrated alcohol warmth with no harshness or astringency.
