The single hop series continues, with Luminosa being this months hop of choice for both a Pale Ale and an IPA. Luminosa leans into a delicate arc, lightness and brightness as the name suggests, clean citrus character, a touch of peach / guava. The Pale Ale leans further into the citrus sheen it inherited from its Pacific Northwestern ancestor.

The IPA carries more weight, sweetness and body, which accentuates the tropical fruit in the mix. It brings bright guava / mango / ripe peachy stone fruits, with the alcohol giving a roundness and an intensity.
