Goma 2 IPA

◎ Appearance

Goma 2 presents a pale golden hue with excellent clarity and lively carbonation that forms a dense, white head with strong retention and fine lacing down the glass. The visual profile is characteristic of a well-executed American IPA, bright and inviting with persistent foam clinging to the sides.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with prominent tropical fruit notes—ripe mango and passionfruit—layered with bright citrus, particularly grapefruit zest. Beneath the fruit sits a resinous, piney undertone from the Mosaic hops, while the Maris Otter malz provides subtle grain support without overwhelming the volatile hop character.

◐ Taste

The palate delivers an explosive hop experience true to its name, with tropical and citrus flavors dominating the mid-palate. The 60 IBU bitterness is assertive yet balanced, building a clean, dry structure without harshness. The Maris Otter malz contributes a crisp, understated sweetness that frames rather than competes with the hop intensity.

◑ Finish

The finish is dry and crisp, with lingering resinous and citrus notes that fade cleanly over several seconds. No harsh astringency or residual sweetness remains—only a refreshing, well-integrated bitterness that invites the next sip.

Serve at 8–11°C for the best flavour balance and aroma expression.

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