Alphabet Session IPA

◎ Appearance

Pale golden hue with a distinctly hazy suspension throughout, characteristic of the style. The head is white and moderately persistent, with visible lacing that clings to the glass. Fine carbonation supports the body without appearing aggressive.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with bright citrus notes—lemon zest and grapefruit pith—backed by restrained herbal and pine undertones from the old-world hops. The grist of oats and wheat adds a subtle grainy softness that anchors the aromatic profile without muddying the hop-forward character.

◐ Taste

Entry is clean and crisp, with juicy citrus flavors unfolding across the mid-palate alongside a light, biscuity malt sweetness. The 40 IBU bitterness arrives measured and focused, neither aggressive nor recessive, allowing both hop character and malt backbone to coexist. The oat and wheat adjuncts contribute a silky, smooth mouthfeel.

◑ Finish

The finish is dry and refreshing, with lingering citrus and gentle herbal fade that does not overstay. The low alcohol allows the hop bitterness to taper gracefully without warming or fatigue.
