Lumen
Lumen is one of Grimm's classic hazy IPAs and has been brewed again and again since 2016. Citra, Mosaic, El Dorado and Simcoe give it a tropical profile: overripe mango and guava lead, followed by tangerine and a squeeze of lime. The body is soft and velvety, and the bitterness stays gentle, so the fruit carries the beer through to the finish. The brewery itself calls it a balanced hazy IPA, one that aims for drinkability rather than maximum intensity.
