Klintholm IPA

Tap to rate

A bitter, well-balanced top-fermented IPA made with organic malt and hops. Fresh citrus, tropical fruit and a light floral hop aroma on the nose, clear citrus notes and fruity freshness on the palate, and a crisp, clean finish. The beer is named after Klintholm, part of Klintekongen's realm, where beach and harbour open towards the world, a nod to the voyages that carried the IPA across the seas.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with vibrant citrus notes—lemon and grapefruit peel—layered beneath tropical fruit aromatics reminiscent of mango and passionfruit. Beneath these fruit-forward impressions sits a subtle floral character from the noble hops, with clean malt undertones that provide foundation without overwhelming the hop expression.

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.
