◐ Taste

The palate opens bright and crisp, with immediate citrus intensity balanced by a measured 60 IBU bitterness that builds through the mid-palate without overwhelming. Peach and subtle orchard fruit flavors integrate seamlessly with the hop bite, while the low alcohol allows the hop character to dominate cleanly.

The curved shape concentrates hop aromas and supports a thick head. Essential for aromatic ales and IPAs where the nose is half the experience.

About Alcohol-Free IPA

Style guide · what to expect · how to find alternatives

What is a Alcohol-Free IPA?

IPAs are hop-forward ales with 5.5–7.5% ABV and IBU 40–70+. Bold hop aroma — citrus, tropical, resinous — with firm bitterness and a dry, clean finish.

Finding a similar Alcohol-Free IPA

hopIQ matches by flavor profile — not just style label. A beer with the same citrusy, bitter, hoppy character as Goram IPA Zero will score highly even if brewed in a different country or under a different sub-style name.
