Phillips Electric Unicorn White IPA - 30 Litre Keg

Electric Unicorn is a beloved staple from Victoria’s Phillips Brewing & Malting Co. This White IPA is a hybrid style that marries the spicy, fruity esters of a Belgian Witbier with the aggressive, aromatic hop profile of a Northwest IPA. It is designed to be a whimsical, high-energy brew that offers a complex sensory experience, balancing a creamy wheat body with a sharp, hoppy "horn" of bitterness.

Beer Description

This White IPA pours a hazy, pale straw color with a dense, frothy white head and visible carbonation.

Aroma: It features an eclectic and punchy nose, blending the coriander and orange peel notes of a Belgian ale with the tropical and citrus aromatics of West Coast hops. Expect scents of banana, clove, and grapefruit.

Palate: The flavor is a bright collision of styles. It begins with a soft, pillowy malt sweetness and spicy yeast character, which is quickly overtaken by a zesty hop profile of pineapple and citrus. It finishes with a crisp, dry bitterness that cleanses the palate.

Profile: It has an ABV of 6.5% and a moderate-to-high bitterness, providing a more robust experience than a traditional wheat beer while remaining lighter on its feet than a standard IPA.

Technical Notes: Brewed with a significant portion of wheat and oats to achieve its signature haze and silky mouthfeel. It is fermented with a specific Belgian yeast strain and aggressively hopped to ensure the IPA half of the hybrid style remains front and center.
