Overwhelmed DIPA

◎ Appearance

Hazy golden-amber body with excellent opacity and a soft, persistent white head that clings to the glass in fine lacing. The cloudiness derives from the yeast and hop material rather than chill haze, creating a natural, inviting visual presence. Effervescence is moderate and even throughout.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with bright tropical fruit — passion fruit and mango lead, followed by citrus notes of orange and pineapple. White wine and white grape skin aromatics emerge from the freeze-dried adjunct, adding subtle vinous complexity. Beneath lies a resinous, piney hop character with a light dank undertone that grounds the aromatics.

◐ Taste

The palate entry is smooth and pillowy, with soft malt sweetness that allows the hop-forward character to dominate. Mid-palate builds tropical and citrus fruit flavors alongside the white grape and wine notes, balanced by moderate bitterness (80 IBU) that never becomes harsh. The resinous, dank edge develops gradually, adding depth and a subtle herbal dryness without overwhelming the fruit.

◑ Finish

The finish is medium-length and dry, with the dank resinous character persisting alongside a lingering citrus note. Bitterness fades gracefully, leaving a clean, slightly herbal aftertaste that invites the next sip.
