Renegade

Tap to rate

An unfiltered IPA in the New England manner, heavily dry hopped with Amarillo, Galaxy and Mosaic. Passion fruit, mango and lemon carry the flavour, with a touch of blueberry behind them. A long whirlpool addition at lower temperature keeps the finish smooth and soft, and bitterness is low. Fermentation uses a traditional East Coast yeast.

Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for Renegade

◎ Appearance

Hazy golden-orange body with suspended yeast creating a cloudy, opaque appearance characteristic of New England style. A thick, creamy white head forms quickly and clings to the glass with notable persistence. Bright carbonation is visible as fine bubbles rising through the unfiltered matrix.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with vibrant stone fruit and citrus notes: ripe mango and passion fruit lead, followed by fresh lemon zest. Galaxy and Mosaic hops add subtle floral undertones, while Amarillo contributes a gentle herbal frame. The background reveals a soft, clean yeast character with no sharp esters, allowing the hop aromatics to take centre stage.

◐ Taste

The palate opens with tropical fruit sweetness—mango and passion fruit dominate the entry—then transitions to bright citrus notes in the mid-palate. A whisper of blueberry adds subtle depth behind the primary flavours. Bitterness remains restrained at 10 IBU, allowing the fruit character to flow uninterrupted; the low-temperature whirlpool addition delivers a smooth, soft finish without harsh hop bite.

◑ Finish

The aftertaste lingers with lingering passion fruit and lemon notes, fading gradually rather than abruptly. The overall impression is clean and refreshing, with no astringency or cloying sweetness.

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.
