Berlin Jungle IPA

Tap to rate

Mango and grapefruit with pine-like moments on the nose, soft on the palate. A dominant bitterness rides on a strong malt body with caramel and bread crust, rounded by hop aroma; resinous tones join the tropical fruit. The mouthfeel is juicy and cooling, the finish long and grapefruit-bitter. Formerly the Lemke IPA, same recipe, now with its own name. Amarillo, Cascade, Simcoe, 6.5% ABV.

Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for Berlin Jungle IPA

◎ Appearance

Deep golden amber, SRM 8, with bright clarity and excellent transparency. The head forms dense and white, clinging to the glass with persistent lacing that marks each sip. Fine carbonation weaves through the body, creating a lively, inviting pour.

◌ Aroma

Mango and grapefruit leap from the nose, supported by resinous pine undertones that anchor the tropical fruit. The hop character is clean and noble—Amarillo, Cascade, and Simcoe work in concert—without harsh leafiness. Subtle breadcrust and caramel malt emerge beneath the citrus veil.

◐ Taste

The palate opens soft and juicy despite the 60 IBU asserting itself mid-palate as a dominant, measured bitterness. Strong malt backbone of caramel and bread crust holds the hops in balance, while resinous and citric notes circle the finish. The mouthfeel is cooling and full, never harsh.

◑ Finish

The finish extends long and dry, grapefruit bitterness holding court without astringency. A warming, slightly resinous aftertaste persists, tapering gradually into a clean, refreshing fade.

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.
