Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for This is Peacharine

◎ Appearance

Pale golden hue with excellent clarity and a bright, white head that settles to a thin collar. Fine carbonation produces steady streams of small bubbles, and the head maintains good adhesion to the glass walls throughout the pour.

◌ Aroma

The nose is dominated by ripe stone fruit—prominent peach and apricot notes arise from the Peacharine hop. Citrus follows closely: grapefruit pith and lime zest add complexity, while delicate floral undertones provide a refined, almost perfumed backdrop. The Pilsner and caramel malts contribute a soft, grain-forward sweetness without dominating.

◐ Taste

The palate opens with clean malt sweetness from the grist, balanced immediately by the hop character's tart citrus edge and dry stone-fruit notes. Mid-palate shows a controlled bitterness at 60 IBU—present but measured—while the American yeast provides a crisp, neutral fermentation profile that lets the Peacharine hop shine. The finish is dry and refreshing, without harshness.

◑ Finish

The beer finishes dry and clean, with lingering peach and lime notes that gradually fade over 30–40 seconds. A subtle, pleasant bitterness remains without any harsh astringency.

Serve at 8–11°C

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.
