La Pirata Red Moose

This American IPA pours a distinctive reddish-amber, living up to its name with brilliant clarity and a persistent off-white head. The sensory profile is defined by a firm, resinous bitterness that deliberately shuns the modern hazy trend, offering a clean and focused experience. Aromas of bright citrus zest and fresh pine needles lead the charge, supported by a sturdy, toasted malt backbone that suggests light caramel and bread crust. On the palate, the hop intensity remains high, delivering grapefruit and spicy floral notes over a clean fermentation profile. It finishes crisp and dry, emphasizing a classic balance where malt presence provides a structural counterpoint to a persistent, hoppy finish.
