Allagash Tropical Lime IPA

◎ Appearance

Pours a bright, slightly hazy gold with fine carbonation and a delicate white head. The haze suggests active suspension of wheat and adjunct proteins, while the color reflects the pale Malz bill. Head retention is moderate with gentle lacing around the glass.

◌ Aroma

Lime and coconut dominate the nose, arriving immediately and persistently. Behind these bright citrus and tropical notes sit pineapple, mango, and citrus peel, speaking to the Citra, Mosaic, and Sabro hop blend. A subtle honeyed sweetness from the pale Malz base rounds the profile without obscuring the fruit-forward character.

◐ Taste

Entry is crisp and tart, with bright lime tartness leading across the palate. The light body carries tropical hop flavors through the mid-palate, balanced by a gentle, honeyed sweetness that prevents the beer from becoming sharp. The 60 IBU bittering is restrained, adding structure without overwhelming the delicate fruit character.

◑ Finish

The finish turns dry with a salty, zesty minerality and a whisper of pine from the noble hop contribution. The aftertaste is clean and short, fading to a lingering citrus edge without residual sweetness.
