High Res
High Res is a Hop Saturated Ale from Denver's Cerebral Brewing, pushing the hazy IPA format into lush, high-definition territory. It pours a dense, golden-amber haze with a pillowy white head that lingers invitingly. The aroma bursts with Citra and Nelson hops layered into something almost dessert-like — think lemon meringue pie, tangy Squirt soda, and delicate passion fruit macaron. On the palate, the mouthfeel is full and pillowy, delivering waves of tropical citrus and tart lemon curd balanced by a subtle sweetness. Despite its substantial strength, the bitterness remains soft and rounded. The finish is long and juicy, leaving a bright, citrus-kissed warmth that invites another sip.
