Beer Profile

Rare Bird Mixed Feelings

This Experimental IPA showcases a complex profile derived from a mixed culture fermentation and a potent blend of Citra, Sabro, Azacca, and El Dorado hops. Poured with a substantial 8.1% ABV and 70 IBU, the beer presents bright, assertive aromas. The flavor profile leans into notes of candied citrus peel, tropical fruit esters, and a distinct resinous hop character on the finish. The use of a mixed culture contributes subtle complexity and dryness, balancing the intensity of the hop bill.
