Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for Infinity IPA

◎ Appearance

Infinity IPA presents a pale golden hue with bright clarity and a fine, persistent white head that leaves delicate lacing on the glass. The carbonation is evident in a steady stream of fine bubbles rising through the body. The beer's light colour (8 SRM) allows the clarity and luminosity to shine through.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with assertive Edelhopfen character: citrus notes from Amarillo hop meld with earthy, piney undertones from Mount Hood and Golding. Pale Maris Otter malt provides a subtle sweet baseline without dominating. The aroma is crisp and inviting, with no yeast-driven esters clouding the hop profile.

◐ Taste

The palate enters sharp and refreshing, with pronounced citrus and pine hop flavours building through the mid-palate. Pale Maris Otter malt delivers a clean, slightly sweet backbone that balances the 60 IBU bitterness without softness. The finish turns decidedly bitter, with a dry, peppery quality that lingers persistently.

◑ Finish

The bitter finish is long and uncompromising, with lingering resinous and pine notes that sustain well into the aftertaste. There is no sweetness to soften the close, leaving the drinker with a thoroughly dry mouth and a thirst-quenching sensation.

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.
