Atomic

Overtone Brewing Co.
United Kingdom·Hazy IPA
Tap to rate

Atomic is a hazy, double dry-hopped IPA that Overtone first released in 2022 and has brought back since. Citra, El Dorado and Motueka give juicy citrus, ripe mango and stone fruit, with a candyfloss sweetness and a squeeze of bright lemon on top. The beer was conceived as the lighter sibling of the brewery's triple IPA, built on largely the same hops at 6%. Unfiltered and unfined, it is fruit-driven from start to finish.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with vibrant citrus notes from Citra and bright lemon zest, layered with ripe mango and stone fruit character from El Dorado and Motueka. A delicate candyfloss sweetness underscores the hop-forward profile, with no harsh resin or chlorophyll present. The overall impression is fruity, juicy, and inviting.

◐ Taste

The palate opens with juicy tropical and citrus flavors that build through the mid-palate without becoming cloying. Mild candyfloss sweetness provides structure without overwhelming the hop character. The 50 IBU bittering is restrained and refined, arriving late and fading smoothly rather than asserting dominance.

◑ Finish

The finish is clean and medium-length, with citrus and stone fruit notes lingering gently into the aftertaste. No harsh astringency or metallic notes intrude on the departure.

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.
