This collaborative Double IPA radiates a sunny character, opening with an intense tropical bouquet of ripe peach, juicy pineapple, and the sharp, zesty citrus of yuzu. The influence of Basqueland’s craft is evident in the beer’s vibrant, juicy profile, which balances a firm hop bitterness against a subtle, clean malt backbone. While the 8% ABV provides a structural foundation, the finish remains remarkably crisp and drinkable. Layers of stone fruit and exotic citrus dominate the palate, leading to a lingering, resinous finish that highlights the generous hopping without overwhelming the senses with heat or heavy residual sweetness.
