◐ Taste

Entry is clean and light-bodied, with immediate citrus and a gentle spicy-hop bite. The mid-palate maintains good hop definition without aggressive bitterness, balanced by a restrained malty sweetness. Bitterness settles into a moderate finish, never harsh or lingering, allowing the refreshing character to remain dominant.

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.
