Infinite Highway

Tap to rate

Dank mango, candied orange, peach and blackberry swirl through this hazy double IPA, drawn from lots of Galaxy, Citra and Mosaic. The name looks to the developing future and to where the brewery is capable of going. It is a core beer at 8.0% from Dancing Gnome in Pittsburgh, whose early years belonged exclusively to hop-forward styles.

Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for Infinite Highway

◎ Appearance

Hazy pale gold with a soft, diffuse glow; the cloudiness is substantial and held throughout via suspended yeast and proteins. A dense, creamy head forms and recedes slowly, leaving delicate traces of lacing on the glass. Bright carbonation lifts the sediment, maintaining the murky character throughout the drinking experience.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with ripe stone fruit and tropical sweetness—candied orange zest and peach nectar dominate, undercut by a grassy, herbal undertone from Galaxy and Mosaic hops. Blackberry compote and a faint dank earthiness emerge in the background, grounding the bright citrus character without aggressive resinousness.

◐ Taste

Entry is lush and juicy, delivering ripe peach and mango on the mid-palate with a soft, candy-like sweetness that balances the hop intensity. Bitterness arrives measured and clean at 65 IBU, integrated rather than piercing, with lingering dank and herbal notes from the noble hop blend. Body is full but not heavy, with a slight resinous dryness that prevents cloying.

Tulip glass

The curved shape concentrates hop aromas and supports a thick head. Essential for aromatic ales and IPAs where the nose is half the experience.
