Take My Horse To The Hotel Room

◎ Appearance

Pale golden-yellow hue with pronounced haze throughout the body, characteristic of the New England IPA style. A thick, creamy head forms on the pour with sustained retention and fine lacing on the glass. Bright, soft carbonation rises steadily through the cloudy matrix.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with vibrant tropical fruit—melon and guava dominate, supported by papaya undertones that suggest ripe stone fruits. Delicate floral notes of wild flowers weave through the mid-palate impression, while a bright pineapple thread ties the composition together. The experimental yeast strain contributes subtle, clean fermentation character without harsh phenolic edges.

◐ Taste

The palate opens soft and juicy, with melon and tropical stone fruit flooding the entry before papaya sweetness settles on the mid-palate. Wheat malt and oat flakes provide a smooth, pillowy body that carries the fruit character without astringency. Bitterness remains restrained at 13 IBU, allowing hop character to express as fruity and floral rather than resinous or cutting.

◑ Finish

The finish fades gracefully into a gentle fruity and floral aftertaste, with lingering notes of pineapple and wild flowers. The moderate alcohol (5.9% ABV) keeps the close dry yet refreshing, without warmth or cloying sweetness.
