Spruce Double IPA

◎ Aussehen

Deep gold color with excellent clarity and fine carbonation creating a persistent, tight head. The beer presents a clean visual profile with good lacing that clings to the glass as you drink.

◌ Aroma

Vibrant hop character leads with citrus and fresh pine, immediately grounded by hand-harvested Sitka spruce that adds a distinctive herbal and slightly fruity quality. Beneath the aromatics, subtle malt undertones provide balance without obscuring the prominent hop profile.

◐ Geschmack

The palate opens with assertive citrus and piney hop bitterness that remains well-integrated rather than harsh. Mid-palate develops berry-like character from the spruce, layered with tropical fruit notes and a gentle herbal warmth from the elevated alcohol. The finish brings a light malt sweetness that tempers the bitterness without becoming cloying.

◑ Abgang

Extended dry finish with lingering pine and citrus notes. The spruce character persists subtly on the aftertaste alongside a moderate warming sensation.
