Very dry and assertively bitter.
The malt sets the frame and lets the hops carry the flavour.
Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Facepeeler
◎ Appearance
Facepeeler pours a hazy deep golden-amber with suspended sediment creating a soft, diffuse clarity that catches light warmly. A frothy white head builds with vigor and persists across the surface, leaving delicate lacing along the glass rim. The carbonation is moderate, visible as fine bubbles that rise steadily through the cloudy body.
◌ Aroma
The nose announces itself immediately with ripe tropical fruit—mango and passionfruit dominate, layered underneath with bright tangerine zest and juicy citrus notes. Beneath this fruity veil sits a earthy, dank pine resin foundation with hints of herbal green. The overall aromatic profile is bold and unapologetic, heavy on Edelhopfen character with minimal malt contribution.
◐ Taste
Entry brings a pillowy, full-bodied malt structure that refuses to collapse under aggressive hop pressure. Mid-palate unfolds in waves of resinous pine, juicy citrus, and lingering tropical notes, while a measured bitterness (90 IBU) develops smoothly rather than harshly. The 10.25% alcohol is present as warmth and sweetness but remains well-integrated into the overall balance.
◑ Finish
The finish is long and warming, with resinous hop bitterness holding firm alongside a gentle alcoholic glow. Residual tropical and citrus notes linger in the aftertaste, gradually fading into dry, piney recollection.

Finding a similar Triple IPA
hopIQ matches by flavor profile — not just style label. A beer with the same tropical, hoppy, resinous character as Facepeeler will score highly even if brewed in a different country or under a different sub-style name.
