Hop Bullet Magnum

◎ Appearance

Light amber to golden hue with moderate clarity and a fine, persistent head that clings to the glass with good retention. The carbonation presents as lively and well-integrated, creating a vibrant visual presence characteristic of the Imperial IPA style.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with bright citrus notes of grapefruit and orange rind, supported by a distinct pine-resin character from the Magnum hop. Beneath the aromatic hops lies a subtle caramel sweetness from the crystal malt base, with a dank earthiness emerging on deeper inspection.

◐ Taste

Entry delivers a round, slightly sweet palate from the oats and wheat adjuncts, which provide a soft mouthfeel. The mid-palate shifts toward candied orange and herbal bitterness, with the dank note becoming more pronounced, before transitioning into a pithy, resinous character.

◑ Finish

The finish turns notably bitter and pithy, with pine-resin lingering alongside the warming effect of 9.5% alcohol. The aftertaste leans toward dry citrus pith, fading gradually with a pleasant, alcohol-driven warmth.

Serve at 8–11°C for the best flavour balance and aroma expression.

The curved shape concentrates hop aromas and supports a thick head. Essential for aromatic ales and IPAs where the nose is half the experience.
