Hoppy Ness

◎ Appearance

Hoppy Ness presents a bright gold colour with excellent clarity and fine carbonation visible throughout the glass. The head forms quickly and clings persistently to the glass walls, creating a crisp white collar that slowly recedes to a thin lacing.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with pronounced pine and citrus notes from the Columbus and Citra hops, creating a fresh and inviting character. Beneath the hop-driven profile sits a gentle malt sweetness that grounds the aroma without overwhelming the aromatic hops, balanced by clean Highland water.

◐ Taste

Entry is crisp and clean, with bright citrus and piney hop flavours taking immediate prominence across the palate. The malty sweetness provides support throughout, preventing the bitterness from becoming harsh, while tropical notes emerge in the mid-palate, adding complexity to this refreshing IPA at 5% ABV.

◑ Finish

The finish is crisp and moderately dry, with lingering hoppy bitterness that fades gradually into a clean aftertaste. No cloying residue remains—just the pleasant memory of pine and citrus.
