La Pirata Viakrucis
American IPA - 6º - 62 IBU
La Pirata Brewing
La Pirata Viakrucis is a complex American IPA that pours a vibrant amber with distinctive reddish highlights under a persistent, fine-textured head. The aromatic profile is led by an intense burst of tropical fruit, featuring Citra-driven mango ice cream, peach in syrup, and zesty orange peel, complemented by a peculiar hint of vanilla. On the palate, a soft entry quickly gives way to the firm, resinous bitterness provided by Tomahawk and Summit hops. While the finish is long and hop-forward, it reveals surprising layers of toffee, toasted hazelnut, and a whisper of cocoa, creating a sophisticated balance between New World hops and kilned malt character.
