Hop Ottin’ IPA

◎ Appearance

Deep amber hue with excellent clarity and a fine, persistent head that leaves distinctive lacing down the glass as you drink. The carbonation is moderate and well-integrated, creating a clean visual presentation typical of West Coast IPA tradition.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with bright citrus notes—grapefruit and citron dominate—followed by pronounced pine and resin character from generous Columbus and Cascade dry-hopping. Subtle floral undertones of bergamot and rose emerge beneath the bold hop profile, creating an inviting and complex aromatic front.

◐ Taste

The palate delivers bold, assertive hop character with citrus and pine flavors leading the charge, supported by a solid malt foundation that prevents the bitterness from becoming austere. Seventy-eight IBU of resiny, herbal bitterness builds through the mid-palate without overshadowing the underlying sweetness and body, creating a well-balanced interplay between malt and hops.

◑ Finish

The finish is dry and lingering, with herbal and resinous notes persisting on the palate long after the initial swallow. A subtle citrus fade and gentle bitterness complete the experience without cloying or leaving harsh astringency.
