Roman Candle is the flagship IPA from Toronto’s Bellwoods Brewery, a pioneer in the Canadian craft beer scene. Originally brewed as one of their very first recipes at their modest brewpub on Ossington Avenue, it has grown into a benchmark for the style. It is designed to be a "dry-hopped harmony," focusing on a massive aromatic impact and a clean, refreshing profile rather than overwhelming bitterness. It remains a definitive example of how a modern IPA can be both bold and elegantly balanced.
Beer Description
This IPA pours a slightly hazy, glowing golden-straw color with a pillowy, resilient white head.
Aroma: The nose is a vibrant explosion of tropical and citrus fruit. Dominant notes of bright grapefruit and juicy pineapple are complemented by subtle floral undertones and a hint of resinous pine.
Palate: On the tongue, it is remarkably crisp and dry. It offers a lean, crackery malt base that allows the hop flavors of tangerine zest and tropical fruit to take center stage. The finish is clean with a firm, refined bitterness that invites another sip.
Profile: It has an ABV of 6.8% and a moderate-to-high bitterness, providing a punchy West Coast soul with the softer, aromatic sensibilities of modern brewing.
Technical Notes: Brewed with a simple, high-quality malt bill to ensure a dry finish. It is aggressively dry-hopped with a blend of classic and modern hops to maximize aromatic complexity without adding astringency.
