🌍 Canada · IPA · One of 54 IPAs in hopIQ

A wet-hopped IPA that can only be brewed once a year: in the middle of harvest, fresh Centennial hops travel from Sartori Cedar Ranch near Chilliwack to the kettle in Victoria. The hops from the Columbia Valley carry a profile tied to that one patch of land. At 7 percent, on pilsner and crystal malt.

Firmly bitter and dry.

A trim base, a hop-led finish — the classic setup for a hop-forward beer.

Wider bands mean we're less certain about the exact position.

Beneath lies a clean, understated malt backbone of pilsner and crystal, contributing soft grain and minimal sweetness.

The pilsner and crystal malt provide a soft, slightly sweet platform that balances the pronounced bitterness without heaviness.

Serve & Enjoy

How to get the most out of Sartori Harvest

Serve at 8–11°C
Refrigerate, then rest 2 min

Serve well-chilled. Session IPAs are at their best cold — the lower ABV means less warmth to balance the hops.

Tulip glass
Recommended for this style

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.
