HOPIQ TAKE

Freak of Nature if you want pure hop aggression and resin, In Profondità DIPA if you want complexity and restraint. Both sit at 8% ABV and 80 IBU, but Wicked Weed leans into that unhinged double IPA character—it's unapologetic. Animus takes the same stats and threads a needle with nuance, letting malt and fermentation character breathe alongside the hops. Same specifications, totally different philosophies.

TASTING NOTES

Freak of Nature

HoppyPineyDry

Freak of Nature hits like its name suggests—this is a beer that doesn't apologize for wanting to coat your mouth in citrus oil and bitter resin. There's a sharp, almost herbal edge that cuts through the middle, with pine and grapefruit pith doing most of the talking. The 8% ABV hides well; it's not boozy, just confident. It's the kind of double IPA that reminds you why you fell in love with the style in the first place—no tricks, just relentless hop character.

In Profondità DIPA

HoppyPineyResinous

In Profondità feels more composed, like someone took the DIPA template and asked what else it could be. There's a floral, almost tea-like quality underneath the citrus—you get the IBUs, but they're integrated rather than weaponized. The body has more presence, a slight caramel sweetness that prevents this from being one-dimensional. It's the kind of beer that opens up as it warms, revealing layers you didn't expect from something this balanced.
