Left Handed Giant - Grand Finale
Beer Description
Grand Finale takes everything that makes Left Handed Giant's Opening Theme series so special and turns the intensity up to eleven! This spectacular 8% Hazy Double IPA brings together Nelson Sauvin, Citra, Mosaic and Simcoe hops in a gloriously extravagant celebration of modern hop-forward brewing. Double-centrifuged and dry-hopped at more than twice the rate of its sister beers, Grand Finale delivers an extraordinary concentration of juicy fruit aromas and rich hop character. The brewery's hand-selected Yakima Chief hop lots combine with exceptional Nelson Sauvin crops from New Zealand growers Bold River and Pikamai, creating a vibrant explosion of Seville orange, Alphonso mango and ripe melon. It's a wonderfully ambitious beer that showcases just how much flavour can be packed into a beautifully crafted Double IPA.
Pouring a gloriously hazy golden colour, Grand Finale offers a rich, full-bodied drinking experience that perfectly complements its enormous hop intensity. On the palate, expect generous waves of succulent Alphonso mango and sweet, ripe melon, balanced by the distinctive bittersweet citrus character of Seville orange. Nelson Sauvin introduces delicate white grape and gooseberry impressions, while Citra, Mosaic and Simcoe contribute further layers of tropical fruit, citrus zest and subtle resinous complexity. The generous dry-hopping creates an intensely aromatic profile, with a smooth, rounded texture that carries the substantial 8% ABV beautifully. A lingering, hop-saturated finish makes every sip a pleasure, delivering the perfect conclusion to Left Handed Giant's remarkable three-beer exploration of one exceptional hop combination.
