American IPA 6.2 º 50 IBU

Toppling Goliath

Pompeii is a masterfully crafted American IPA that showcases the Mosaic hop variety with vivid precision. Aromas of lush mango and ripe pineapple dominate the olfactory profile, underpinned by a subtle, grounding earthiness characteristic of the variety. This medium-bodied ale balances a clean, grainy malt backbone with assertive bitterness, allowing the tropical fruit notes to shine. The sensory experience is reminiscent of a vibrant mosaic, where each element—from the initial citrus zest to the lingering, resinous finish—contributes to a cohesive and refreshing whole. Its clean fermentation and dryish finish ensure a high level of drinkability while highlighting Toppling Goliath's signature hop-forward character.

Appearance. Medium gold to deep yellow (SRM 6-8). Clear to slightly hazy with a persistent, medium-sized white head that leaves consistent lacing on the glass.

Aroma. High intensity hop aroma featuring prominent mango, crushed pineapple, and subtle blueberry notes from the Mosaic hops. A light, earthy pine undertone is present, supported by a low, clean, grainy-sweet malt profile and neutral fermentation character.

Taste. Bold hop flavors of tropical mango and pineapple lead into a firm, clean bitterness. A low, supporting malt sweetness provides a brief balance before a dry, crisp finish. Secondary notes of citrus peel and slight herbal earthiness emerge in the mid-palate, concluding with a lingering, hoppy aftertaste.

Mouthfeel. Medium body with a smooth, soft texture. Moderate to high carbonation provides a refreshing, crisp mouthfeel. No harshness or astringency, with negligible alcohol warmth at 6.2% ABV.
