◌ Aroma

The nose leads with bright citrus notes from Citra and Mosaic hops—grapefruit zest and tangerine pith dominate the top. Beneath sits a light, clean malt backdrop from Golden Promise with subtle oat sweetness, while the London Fog yeast contributes a neutral, understated character that allows the hop aromatics to remain central.

◐ Taste

Entry is light and crisp, with the oat-malt base providing soft body and gentle sweetness. Mid-palate shows measured bitterness (22 IBU) balanced by citrus and stone fruit from the hop blend, creating a dry, refreshing sensation without harshness. The finish dries cleanly, leaving the palate prepared for the next sip rather than lingering.

◑ Finish

Drying and relatively short, with residual citrus notes fading into a clean, neutral aftertaste. The low alcohol (4.5%) ensures no warming or heaviness.

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.
