Moersleutel x La Débauche Blueprints Toaster – IPA 6%

SubZero Hop Kief. Early vs Late Harvest. Maximum Contrast.

Blueprints Toaster is a collaborative IPA with La Débauche that dives deep into hop science and timing. Built around SubZero Hop Kief and Rakau hop oils from both early and late harvest, this hazy IPA delivers a striking contrast between fresh, resinous brightness and lush, juicy fruit depth.

Layered with Citra and Nelson Sauvin and finished with a touch of wheat for a crisp bite, Blueprints Toaster is bold, refreshing, and beautifully balanced — a modern IPA designed to showcase hops at their most expressive.

The Craft Behind Blueprints Toaster

SubZero Hop Kief & Dual-Harvest Rakau

This beer is all about contrast through hop timing.

SubZero Hop Kief: Fresh Hop Intensity

SubZero Hop Kief is a highly concentrated hop oil, made from freshly grown New Zealand hops. Applied during cold-side dry hopping, it delivers:

• Explosive fresh-hop aroma

• Intense tropical expression

• Bright, clean hop character

This technique preserves delicate hop compounds that are normally lost during warm-side additions.

Rakau: Early vs Late Harvest

To create depth and contrast, we used Rakau hop oils from two harvest moments:

• Early harvest Rakau

  • Fresh pine

  • Green, grassy notes

  • Bright resinous bite

• Late harvest Rakau

  • Overripe plum

  • Peach and stone fruit

  • Juicy, rich sweetness

Together, they form a layered hop profile that evolves from crisp and resinous to lush and fruity.

Citra & Nelson Sauvin: Juicy Balance

• Citra brings citrus brightness and tropical punch

• Nelson Sauvin adds white grape, gooseberry, and elegant fruit depth

A small addition of wheat sharpens the finish, keeping the beer crisp and refreshing.
