◎ Aussehen

Deep golden-amber body with excellent clarity and fine carbonation that sustains a dense, cream-colored head. The lacing clings persistently to the glass with each sip, revealing the beer's generous carbonation and well-structured foam.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with bright citrus—primarily grapefruit and orange zest—layered over sharp, resinous pine and woody undertones characteristic of East Coast Edelhopfen varieties. A restrained malt sweetness provides ballast without obscuring the hop-forward character.

◐ Geschmack

The palate opens with assertive hop bitterness and citrus intensity that commands attention from the first sip. A fuller malt body—evident but never cloying—supports the bitterness through the mid-palate, while orange notes and subtle pine linger alongside a drying sensation. The finish arrives cleaner than typical for a Double IPA of this strength.

◑ Abgang

The bitter, piney aftertaste persists with moderate length, gradually fading to a dry, slightly astringent note. Despite the 8.2% ABV and 80 IBU profile, alcohol warmth remains subtle and well-integrated.

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.
