Des Moines IPA

◎ Aussehen

Pale golden hue with excellent clarity and bright transparency. A dense, creamy head forms on the pour and clings persistently to the glass walls, leaving distinct lacing as you drink. Carbonation appears lively and well-integrated.

◌ Aroma

Citrus dominates the nose immediately—grapefruit zest, tangerine, and subtle lemon notes emerge with intensity. A light, clean malt backbone sits underneath, providing gentle grain sweetness without obscuring the hop character. No yeast or adjunct aromas interfere.

◐ Geschmack

Entry is crisp and clean, with bright citrus flavors developing across the mid-palate. A moderate, well-defined bitterness arrives mid-sip and holds through the development, balanced by light fruity notes that prevent harshness. The malt provides a subtle, dry foundation without heaviness.

◑ Abgang

Medium-length, dry finish with lingering citrus bitterness and a clean, crisp aftertaste. No astringency or oxidation mars the close.

Serviertemperatur 8–11°C für das beste Geschmacks- und Aromaprofil.

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