Basqueland 99

This gold-medal winning American IPA offers a vibrant sensory profile that challenges the conventions of gluten-free brewing. Dominated by classic West Coast hop aromatics, the nose is led by punchy grapefruit, orange peel, and a distinct resinous pine. On the palate, a crisp, medium-light body highlights a firm hop bitterness balanced by a subtle, clean graininess inherent to its alternative fermentables. The finish is remarkably dry and refreshing, with a lingering citrus zest. It maintains the brilliant clarity and assertive character expected of the American IPA style, proving that the absence of gluten only sharpens its hop-forward focus.
