Brewship Revenge

Tap to rate

Revenge follows the classic India pale ale of the nineteenth century, when heavy hopping and a higher strength were meant to keep the beer sound on the way to India. The colour is clear amber gold, beneath the hops a malt base of caramel and biscuit. Orange marmalade, grapefruit peel and a resinous, herbal note come through the aroma; the bitterness is firm and long and dries the finish without turning harsh.

◐ Taste

The palate enters with balanced bitterness and malt sweetness, the caramel and biscuit malz providing substance that anchors the assertive hop bitterness. The mid-palate reveals orange and grapefruit notes alongside a clean, herbal-resinous character that builds steadily without harshness. At 6.5% ABV, the beer carries enough strength to support the heavy hopping without becoming hot or alcoholic.

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.
