Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for Eierbär

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with pronounced tropical fruit esters—mango and passion fruit—layered over fresh citrus notes that suggest grapefruit and lemon zest. Beneath these hop-driven aromatics sits a clean, neutral malt foundation with minimal yeast character, allowing the noble hops to remain in the foreground.

◐ Taste

Entry is crisp and refreshing, with the tropical and citrus hop character translating directly to the palate. The mid-palate remains dry and lean, with moderate bitterness at 60 IBU providing structure without harshness. The malt supports without sweetness, allowing the hopping regimen to define the flavor arc.

◑ Finish

The finish is notably crisp and short-lived, with lingering citrus notes fading quickly into a dry, refreshing aftertaste. No residual sweetness or astringency persists.

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.
