Almasty IPA

◎ Appearance

Hazy golden-yellow with a soft, persistent white head that clings to the glass. The cloudiness from the unfiltered nature is intentional and characteristic, creating a opaque, inviting appearance. Carbonation is moderate and even throughout.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with bright tropical stone fruit — mango and passionfruit dominate, layered with gentle citrus notes. Mosaic hops deliver their signature character with a subtle dank undertone that adds complexity without overshadowing the fruit-forward profile. The overall impression is juicy and aromatic rather than assertively herbal.

◐ Taste

Entry is smooth and juicy with the tropical fruitiness immediately evident on the palate. The mid-palate remains full and rounded, with the dry-hop additions providing flavor rather than harsh bitterness — the 60 IBU sits lightly for an IPA of this character. Finish is clean and refreshing, allowing the fruit notes to linger without astringency.

◑ Finish

The finish is crisp and relatively short, with the tropical fruitiness fading gracefully into a subtle herbal memory. A light, refreshing aftertaste leaves no lingering harshness or oxidation.
