Fuut Fieuw

Tap to rate

Named after the fuut, a diving bird whose courtship starts with the offer of a small fish and turns into hours of dancing across the water. The blond Session IPA (4.6%) brings citrus, yellow tropical fruit and light caramel on the nose, then a fruity taste and a fine bitterness under a white head. Brewed at Jopen in Haarlem.

◐ Taste

Entry is clean and fruity, with citrus and tropical notes developing across the mid-palate alongside a delicate caramel sweetness. A fine, measured bitterness emerges in the center without sharp edges, maintaining balance and allowing the fruit expression to remain prominent.

Serve at 7–10°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.
