Garage Beer Co / Sudden Death Mirage Helm

This Double IPA is an assertive exploration of dank aromatics, driven by a heavy-handed application of Simcoe, Strata, and Columbus. The sensory journey begins with an intense perfume of fresh pine needles and resinous weed, evocative of a Christmas tree adorned with ripe grapefruit and passion fruit. A pale, hazy, and substantial body carries these aggressive hop oils across the palate, where the Simcoe Cryo and Columbus Cryo provide a sharp, clean bitterness. Despite its 8.2% ABV, the finish remains remarkably crisp, leaving a lingering trail of tropical fruit and pungent, herbal hop character that defines the style's modern evolution.
