This formidable Double IPA delivers an assertive sensory experience driven by an intense hop profile. Aromatic waves of ripe pineapple and bright citrus surge forward, immediately followed by a deep, resinous dank character that persists throughout. At 8.5% ABV, the beer maintains a lean, supportive malt backbone that allows the hops to remain the focal point without becoming cloying. The experience is defined by its clean fermentation and a sharp, refreshing bitterness, providing a smooth but powerful finish that captures the spirit of modern, hop-forward craft brewing with its shattered notes of tropical fruit and resin.
Appearance.Deep gold to light orange-copper color (7-10 SRM). Features a moderate-sized, persistent off-white head with excellent lacing. Clarity is good, though a very slight hop-induced haze is acceptable.
Aroma.High to intense hop aroma featuring prominent notes of tropical pineapple, pithy citrus, and a pungent, resinous dankness. A low, neutral, grainy malt character supports the hops. Fermentation is clean with a light, smooth alcohol note.
Taste.Strong and complex hop flavors dominated by pineapple and citrus landing on a pine-like resinous base. High bitterness that remains firm but not harsh. Low, clean, unobtrusive malt character with a very dry to medium-dry finish. Lingering hoppy, bitter aftertaste with low esters.
Mouthfeel.Medium body with a smooth, velvet-like texture. Moderate to medium-high carbonation. Displays a restrained, smooth alcohol warmth and no hop-derived astringency.
