Boomshakalaka by Double Vision Brewing is a captivating IPA that takes your taste buds on a flavorful journey. This beer pours a vibrant golden hue, topped with a frothy white head that lingers gracefully. The aroma is a tantalizing blend of tropical fruit, citrusy zest, and a hint of earthy hops, with notes of grapefruit, pineapple, and orange peel dominating. On the palate, Boomshakalaka explodes with a symphony of flavors. The initial burst of juicy tropical fruit, including passion fruit and mango, is beautifully balanced by a refreshing citrus bitterness. A subtle malty sweetness provides a solid foundation, allowing the hop showcase to shine. The medium-bodied and well-carbonated liquid delivers a crisp and refreshing sensation, with a lingering bitterness that provides a satisfying finish. The hop profile of Boomshakalaka is a harmonious blend of Mosaic, Citra, Simcoe, and Riwaka hops, used in both the boil and dry-hopping stages. This results in a complex and well-rounded hop profile that contributes to the intense fruit and citrus notes, making it an ideal beer for warm weather and social gatherings.
