Raw Power

Tap to rate

Raw amounts of American Citra hops give this beer a fresh profile of mango, peach and grapefruit that almost camouflages its strength and makes it disturbingly easy to drink. The beer draws its inspiration from New England, where the style is called a Double I.P.A. because it aims to double strength, bitterness and juiciness. Like all beers from the brewery it is unfiltered and unpasteurised.

Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for Raw Power

◎ Appearance

Raw Power presents a pale golden hue with a hazy, slightly turbid character typical of unfiltered and unpasteurised brewing. The beer maintains a dense, creamy head that clings to the glass with persistent lacing. Vigorous carbonation produces a fine, sustained bead that underlines the beer's fresh, lively character.

◌ Aroma

The nose is dominated by a striking blend of tropical fruit notes, with Citra hops delivering prominent mango, peach, and stone fruit aromatics. Grapefruit citrus weaves through the profile, lending a bright acidity to the bouquet. Underneath, subtle caramel Malz character provides a light backbone without obscuring the hop-forward character.

◐ Taste

The palate opens with a juicy, fruit-forward entry that belies the beer's considerable 8.3% alcohol strength. Mid-palate reveals a full, rounded body with pronounced peach and mango flavours balanced against a clean bitterness (80 IBU). The finish transitions smoothly from fruity sweetness into a dry, hoppy bitterness that lingers without harshness.

◑ Finish

A sustained, dry finish persists with residual citrus bitterness and a slight warming sensation from the alcohol. The aftertaste remains refreshing and fruit-forward, with grapefruit notes fading gradually into the lingering hop character.

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.
