◌ Aroma

Citra and Mosaic hops deliver prominent citrus and tropical fruit notes—grapefruit zest, stone fruit, and subtle pineapple. Beneath the hops lies a clean, understated Malz character that frames the aromatic profile without competing. No fermentation esters or sulfur; the nose is straightforward and inviting.

◐ Taste

Entry is soft and approachable, with immediate citrus and peach flavors from the hops. Mid-palate develops tropical fruitiness alongside a balanced bitterness that doesn't overpower. The finish turns drier with lingering hop resin and a gentle, measured bite that keeps the beer refreshing despite moderate strength.

Serve well-chilled. Session IPAs are at their best cold — the lower ABV means less warmth to balance the hops.

Tulip glass

The curved shape concentrates hop aromas and supports a thick head. Essential for aromatic ales and IPAs where the nose is half the experience.

Drink fresh. Session IPAs are brewed to be consumed young — the hops are at their best now.
