Triple Hop IPA

Tap to rate

A clean fruity aroma with tropical notes from Galaxy and Simcoe, over a gentle malt sweetness. Triple Hop IPA comes in at 5.2% and uses three hops: Goldings, which recalls the pale IPAs of 1800s England, plus Australian Galaxy and American Simcoe. Production of the Charlie Wells beer has moved to Brewpoint, and it is served at 2 to 4 °C from keg.

◐ Taste

The palate opens with bright fruity character and restrained tropical sweetness from the three-hop blend, settling into a balanced malt foundation that prevents the beer from becoming thin. Moderate bitterness arrives mid-palate with citrus edges, supporting the overall harmony without dominating. The 5.2% ABV keeps the beer refreshing and approachable, never heavy or cloying.

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.
