Assertively bitter and dry.

The malt sets the frame and lets the hops carry the flavour.

Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for Coreff IPA

Appearance

Coreff IPA displays a pale golden hue with excellent clarity and bright transparency. The head forms quickly and clings to the glass with fine, persistent lacing. Carbonation is brisk and visible, creating a lively visual presentation characteristic of well-crafted ales.

Aroma

The nose opens with pronounced citrus notes—grapefruit and orange peel—layered beneath clean, herbaceous hop character. Delicate floral undertones emerge from the noble hop selection, while a subtle Malz foundation provides gentle support without dominating the aromatic profile.

Taste

Entry is crisp and refreshing, with citrus flavors leading across the palate. The mid-palate reveals balanced bitterness and a light, dry malt structure that allows hop character to remain prominent without overwhelming sweetness. Finish is clean and herbaceous, with lingering hop bitterness that fades gracefully.

Finish

The aftertaste extends with a pleasant bitter dryness, leaving the mouth refreshed rather than harsh. Hop oils and citrus notes persist for several seconds before settling into a clean, mineral-like conclusion.
