Growing Power hits the glass pale copper with a loose, fluffy white head. Grapefruit, pear, and floral aromas prevail from organic Cascade, Centennial, and Calypso hops, followed by clove esters and spicy phenols. Citrus and clove greet the palate first, with organic caramel and Munich malt rounding out the flavors, adding balanced sweetness and a medium mouthfeel. This one ought to put a sustainable smile on your face. The citrusy hops and ample maltiness in this Belgo-American hybrid will complement a cayenne pepper and paprika blackened tilapia or a spicy vegan potato and kale curry. Sharp gorgonzola or mild Edam both make perfect companions for Growing Power, too.
