Cyclope IPA

◎ Aussehen

Pale golden hue with bright clarity and lively carbonation. The head forms with moderate density and clings to the glass walls with fine, persistent lacing. A visually clean and inviting pour typical of the style.

◌ Aroma

Simcoe and Mosaic hops present themselves distinctly: ripe mango and stone fruit from Simcoe meet pine resin and passionfruit from Mosaic, with grapefruit peel threading through both. The pale malt base recedes appropriately, providing support rather than assertion. No yeast character intrudes.

◐ Geschmack

Entry is bright and fruity, with tropical and citrus notes arriving immediately. The mid-palate maintains the hop character—resinous and piney—while grapefruit peel bitterness develops firmly without harshness. Malt stays understated, letting the hops command the experience throughout.

◑ Abgang

The close turns notably dry and resinous, holding citrus notes longer than expected. A clean, lingering aftertaste emphasizes the drying quality.

Gut gekühlt servieren. Session IPAs sind am besten kalt — der niedrigere Alkohol bedeutet weniger Wärme zur Balance der Hopfen.

Die geschwungene Form konzentriert Hopfenaromen und hält den Schaum. Unverzichtbar für aromatische Ales und IPAs, bei denen die Nase die halbe Erfahrung ist.
