Espiga Angel of the North
Imperial IPA - 8º - 40 IBU
Espiga
This celestial Hazy Double IPA showcases a vibrant interplay of Krush, Mosaic, and Citra hops. It pours with a characteristically thick, nebulous appearance, a result of the heavy addition of oat malt and oat flakes alongside a base of barley malt. The sensory journey begins with an intense aromatic profile of juicy mandarin, sun-ripened apricot, and tropical mango, underscored by a subtle resinous depth. On the palate, the smooth, pillowy body delivers concentrated stone fruit and citrus flavors. A well-calculated, balanced bitterness offsets the 8% ABV, resulting in a refined finish that remains remarkably drinkable despite its immense hop saturation.
