Basqueland Brewing Irrintzi

Hazy IPA pours with a dense white head above a golden, opaque body. Citra hops deliver distinct notes of grapefruit and lime, while El Dorado contributions manifest as ripe mango, cantaloupe melon, and pineapple. The use of flaked oats and barley malt produces a silky palate and medium-full body that exceeds expectations for a 5.2% ABV session-strength beer. Low bitterness allows the tropical fruit esters and hop oils to remain forward, finishing with a doughy malt sweetness and a clean, fruity palate. This Basque-brewed ale balances a low IBU count against a high concentration of fruit-forward oils for a plush, juice-like character.
