Miami J IPA

◎ Appearance

A pale golden hue with pronounced haze throughout, characteristic of the style. The head is white and pillowy, with good retention and fine lacing that clings to the glass. Moderate carbonation evident in steady streams of small bubbles.

◌ Aroma

The nose is dominated by tropical and citrus notes from the Edelhopfen selection—leading with mango, passionfruit, and soft grapefruit. A subtle grain sweetness from the wheat and oat base provides a soft backdrop, while clean yeast character allows the hop character to remain front and center without harsh vegetal notes.

◐ Taste

The palate entry is soft and juicy, with the wheat and oat base delivering a smooth, almost silken mouthfeel. Mid-palate showcases those fruit-driven hop qualities—stone fruit and citrus zest—with a moderate bitterness that integrates cleanly rather than asserting dominance. The finish is drying without harshness, with lingering fruit notes.

◑ Finish

Medium-length finish with the fruitiness gradually fading into a gentle, slightly dry aftertaste. No harsh astringency; the bitterness recedes gracefully.
