Gold Teeth
Rebel's Brewery

JULY 2024.
On tap at the pub (€6 for 44 cl).
It's a West Coast Ipa in a modern style, in which the extreme fruitiness that invades the palate is also due to the use of Incognito (now, a well-known aromatic (liquid) extract of hops to retain very high aromatic concentrations, without any presence of vegetative matter), as well as the double dry hopping of Loral, Mosaic and Sabro hops.
The extreme fruitiness can already be perceived on the nose with aromas of citrus and more summery and tropical fruit (peach, apricot, melon, pineapple).
It's golden in color, almost completely transparent. Very clean.
Average foam, but of little consistency.
In the mouth, a medium-bodied beer, supported by the right carbonation (lively, but not exaggerated) in which the fruity taste invades the palate leaving almost a patina of ACE juice flavor (orange lemon carrot). There are reflections of sweet tropical fruit (yellow peach, melon, pineapple, mango) that intertwine with those of ripe citrus.
The finish is dry with a slightly more bitter citrus note, but it's a "modern" bitter, precisely: which wants to leave as little trace of itself as possible, to let the fruity aftertaste linger in the mouth for a long time as the first and last hint of the drink.
As intended by the brewery, it's a modern West Coast IPA, very fruity without being cloying but also with that little bit less character than an "old Style", in which the hops, in addition to the aroma, were much more present also in bitterness and closed the drink by "drying" the fruit and leaving on the tongue that pleasant bitter note, absent here.
