Hop Prism
Mirror Twin Brewing

When dry becomes wet, you know you've covered the full spectrum. This revelation makes its way into beer making as Mirror Twin uses Spectrum Citra hop liquids in dry-hop stages to bring out the full and colorful potential of Citra hops.

Hop Prism comes shining with a radiant tangerine perfume that floats above a rather dull and hazy taupe appearance. Capped with a creamy ivory froth, the beer also shares herbal, tropical and complementary citrus tones on its way to a sweeter, creamier and starchier malt and cereal upstart.

As the creamy grains, cereal and doughy flavors simmer on the tastebuds, the flavor of hops blossom into a bold citronella character chocked full of branch-ripe tangerine, lemon and a hint of red grapefruit. A backup of mango, papaya and passionfruit bridge a tropical set of flavors before a closing of tea, hemp and spruce lead into a gin-like direction.

Medium full for standard IPA, the full and silted starchiness of the ale provides a soft and smooth base texture and taste to take an edge off of the bitterness while the full prism of citrus, herb and tropical fruit continue in a whimsical afterglow of aftertaste.
