The Many Worlds Brewing Cosmic Collision
Imperial IPA 8 º
Cosmic Collision is a masterclass in hop saturation, utilizing the concentrated intensity of Citra Lupomax alongside Ella to create a multi-dimensional sensory experience. This Double IPA radiates a vibrant aromatic profile of ripe mango, pink grapefruit, and subtle floral spice. On the palate, the hop-forward character is exceptionally lush, underscored by a massive, silky mouthfeel that is unexpectedly soft for the style. The 8% ABV provides a gentle, well-integrated warmth that complements the ultra-soft bitterness. The finish is clean and lingering, allowing the complex tropical and citrus notes from the Citra and Ella hops to remain the focus.
Appearance. Deep gold to light orange (8 SRM) with a slight, persistent haze from heavy dry-hopping. Topped by a dense, off-white, long-lasting head with excellent lacing.
Aroma. Intense, high-impact hop aroma dominated by Citra-driven notes of grapefruit, passionfruit, and mango, complemented by the tropical fruit and spicy-floral character of Ella. Malt remains a supportive, neutral graininess in the background with a clean, low-ester fermentation profile.
Taste. Powerful hop flavors mirror the aroma with layers of citrus zest, tropical stone fruit, and a hint of resin. Bitterness is present but remarkably soft and smooth, lacking any harshness. The malt provides a clean, soft, bready foundation. Finishes medium-dry with a lingering, oily hop resonance.
Mouthfeel. Medium-full body with a creamy, expansive texture and moderate carbonation. A smooth, restrained alcohol warmth is present at 8% ABV, but there is no hop-derived astringency, enhancing its drinkability.
