Firestone Walker Luponic Distortion IPA Series No. 14

Firestone Walker Luponic Distortion IPA Series No. 14.
5.9 % ABV. 59 IBU. Firestone Walker Brewing, Paso Robles, CA.

Clear, bright golden hue, slim ivory head.

In the nose: Bold, bright beautiful citrus and pine. Bursting with hoppy flavor.

In the mouth: Blasts of bitterness from the start, a shower of citrus zest and piney-ness. Just delicious. A barrage of bitter hops on the palate. Light-ish bodied, long bitter finish. Brittle and dry. Big citrus , bright fruit. Right on the money.

Luponic Distortion No. 14 features a blend of seven experimental hops from South Africa, Australia, Germany and the Pacific Northwest with explosive flavors of white grape, mandarin orange and passionfruit.
