Lucid Love

Tap to rate

Lucid Love is a hazy, hop-forward IPA that Unity released in 2026. It is double dry hopped with Cashmere, Sabro and Vista and fermented with the yeast strain the brewery introduced with Stunt Double. Ripe tropical fruit leads, with juicy mango and citrus close behind; underneath sit softer notes of coconut and stone fruit. The body is smooth and the hop character full. At 6.6% it is clearly stronger than the house IPA, and so far it has been poured on draught only.

Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for Lucid Love

◎ Appearance

Lucid Love presents a pale golden hue with pronounced haziness throughout, characteristic of the style. The thick, creamy head builds readily and maintains strong schaumhaftung down the glass. Bright carbonation rises visibly through the clouded body, driven by the yeast strain's contribution to texture.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with vibrant tropical stone fruits—ripe mango and passion fruit dominate, accompanied by bright citrus zest. A softer coconut and peach undertone emerges beneath, suggesting careful balance in the double dry hop blend of Cashmere, Sabro, and Vista. The fermentation yeast adds a subtle fruitiness without sharp phenolics, keeping the aroma cohesive.

◐ Taste

Entry is juicy and round, with ripe mango and citrus building immediately across the palate. The mid-palate maintains full hop character while a soft, pillowy malt base keeps bitterness at 50 IBU in check—no harsh edges despite the hop load. Creamy body and gentle carbonation amplify smoothness throughout, allowing tropical and stone fruit notes to linger without astringency.

◑ Finish

The finish is clean and moderately long, trailing tropical fruit and soft citrus without drying the palate. A whisper of coconut and stone fruit remains in the aftertaste.

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