◎ Appearance

Dark golden hue with bright clarity and excellent light transmission. A fine beige head rises steadily and clings to the glass with persistent lacing, building an inviting crown that slowly recedes into a delicate collar.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with bright citrus from Citra and Mosaic hops—lemon zest and grapefruit pith dominate the top notes. Underlying notes of resinous pine and subtle stone fruit emerge as the beer warms, with restrained malt backbone providing a clean foundation.

◐ Taste

Entry is crisp and refreshing, with immediate citrus flavor leading into a balanced mid-palate where tropical stone fruit from Simcoe and Mosaic develops. Chinook's peppery bitterness builds steadily through the middle, finishing with a pronounced dry bitterness that remains clean and well-defined.

◑ Finish

The finish is medium in length with lingering bitterness that fades gradually to a dry, slightly minerally aftertaste. The beer leaves the palate refreshed rather than heavy, with no harsh edges.

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.
