The Alchemist – Heady Topper Beer

A highly acclaimed and intensely hopped Double IPA, Heady Topper from The Alchemist has achieved near-mythical status in the craft beer world. Brewed with a proprietary blend of six hops, this unfiltered IPA is designed to deliver wave after wave of hop flavor without overwhelming bitterness. Prepare for a complex and aromatic experience that showcases the pinnacle of American hop character.

Tasting Notes:

• Aroma: A vibrant and complex bouquet of hop aromas dominates, featuring notes of bright citrus (grapefruit, orange), tropical fruit (mango, pineapple), and resinous pine. Subtle undertones of floral and slightly spicy notes add to the aromatic intrigue.
• Flavor: The palate is met with a juicy and assertive hop profile, delivering flavors of grapefruit zest, pine needles, and a noticeable tropical fruit character. A subtle malt sweetness provides just enough backbone to support the intense hop flavors without overshadowing them.
• Mouthfeel: Medium-bodied with a smooth and slightly creamy texture, enhanced by a moderate carbonation that keeps the beer lively and refreshing. The unfiltered nature contributes to the full mouthfeel.
• Finish: The finish is distinctly hoppy with a firm but balanced bitterness that lingers pleasantly. Aromatic hop notes persist, leaving a clean and remarkably drinkable impression for an 8% ABV Double IPA.

Note from the Brewer: The Alchemist encourages drinking Heady Topper straight from the can to best preserve its delicate hop aromas and flavors. However, pouring into a glass will allow you to fully appreciate its hazy appearance and complex aromatic profile.
