O'Hara's Tropical IPA

◎ Aussehen

A luminous golden-yellow hue shines through persistent haze, created by suspended proteins and yeast derived from the oat and wheat adjuncts. The dense, pillowy head clings to the glass with firm adhesion, leaving a tracery of lacing on the walls. Bright carbonation rises steadily through the cloudy body.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with bright stone fruit—tangerine and papaya dominate, underscored by a grapefruit and orange peel minerality. Pineapple and tropical notes build in the mid-range, while a soft creamy maltiness from the oat bill provides a gentle, warm backdrop without obscuring the hop character.

◐ Geschmack

The palate enters with a juicy malt sweetness balanced by moderate bitterness (50 IBU), allowing tropical fruit flavors to persist through the mid-palate. Citra and Mosaic dry-hopping deliver citrus and stone fruit notes with a subtle dryness, while the oat-wheat-barley base builds a full, velvety mouthfeel that carries the complex hop blend without astringency.

◑ Abgang

The finish extends with pineapple and citrus lingering pleasantly on the palate. A gentle, dry fade leaves behind a clean hop impression without harsh phenols or metallic notes.
