US Hop Harvest Red IPA

◎ Aussehen

A fiery amber pour with brilliant clarity and a copper-tinged translucence. The head builds with moderate density and settles to a persistent collar that clings to the glass walls with fine, delicate lacing. Carbonation is brisk and visible, creating a lively bead throughout the drink.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with vibrant citrus notes—orange zest and grapefruit—layered beneath a wave of tropical fruit character: pineapple, mango, and stone fruit. Beneath the hop-forward top notes sits a subtle malt foundation offering light caramel undertones and a hint of biscuit, creating depth without masking the aromatic hop profile.

◐ Geschmack

The palate opens with a restrained malt sweetness—Gladfield crystal and Munich malts provide a gentle caramel body—before a firm, well-integrated hop bitterness comes into focus. The mid-palate holds the balance steady, with tropical and citric hop character threading through the malt structure, creating a full yet dry impression across the tongue.

◑ Abgang

The finish persists with a long, dry biscuity aftertaste where the bitterness gradually recedes, leaving a subtle malty warmth and faint caramel on the palate. The lingering quality rewards a contemplative sip and encourages return visits to the glass.

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.
