Bidassoa Basque Brewery Larrun

Larrun is a powerful Rye Imperial IPA that mirrors the imposing structure of its namesake Basque peak. It presents a deep amber hue topped with a persistent off-white foam. The aromatic profile is intense, leading with vibrant citrus and floral hop notes backed by a robust caramel sweetness and the signature peppery spice of rye malt. On the palate, a bold bitterness is immediately apparent, balanced by a sturdy cereal backbone and resinous pine characters. At 8.5% ABV, it offers a noticeable but well-integrated warmth, culminating in a complex, lingering finish that highlights the harmonious interaction between earthy spice and pungent hops.
